Question

Calculate the missing angle and give a reason for your answer

Answer 1

Answer:

h = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle has 2 congruent sides and is isosceles.

The base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent, both 62° , then

vertex = 180° - (62 + 62)° = 180° - 124° = 56°

Then

h = 56 ( alternate angles )

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

the triangle is an isosceles triangle hence the base angles are equal

sum of angles in a triangle is 180°, therefore, the top angle =180-(62+62)

the top angle =56°

h°= the top angle because alternate angles are equal

hence, h=56°
