Question

Find the measure of the missing angle.

Answer 1

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

if you add 90+56 you get 146 and then 180-146=34

Answer 2

Answer:

a = 34°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We know that the straight line is a straight angle (180°), and the right angle is worth 90°.

2. This means that a + 90 + 56 = 180.

3. (Solving equation above).

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

• $(a)+(90+56)=180$
• $a + 146 = 180$

Step 2: Subtract 146 from both sides.

• $a+146 - 146 = 180 - 146$
• $a = 34$

Step 3: Check if solution is correct.

• $(34) + 90 + 56 = 180$
• $124 + 56 = 180$
• $180 = 180$

Therefore, a = 34°.
