Question

Neko made a triangular flag shown below. He wanted to attach it to the stick and then trim off the extra fabric so the flag would form an
isosceles triangle. By how many degrees was he off when he attached the triangle to the stick?

Answer 1

Answer:

Pretty sure its A

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Neko's flag ended with a triangle having 62 and 86 degrees as base angles because the stick was 12 degrees out of alignment from the proper position (both angles are 74 degrees each) - Option A

Recall:

• Isosceles triangle is a triangle having two congruent base angles and two equal sides.

Thus:

In the base angles of the triangle formed by the flag with the stick are as follows:

180 - 118 = 62 degrees (linear pair)

180 - (62 + 32) = 86 degrees. (sum of triangles)

Neko ended up having a flag that has 62 and 86 degrees base angles.

For both angles to be equal, we would have the following:

• 62 + 12 = 74 degrees
• 86 - 12 = 74 degrees

In conclusion, Neko's flag ended with a triangle having 62 and 86 degrees as base angles because the stick was 12 degrees out of alignment from the proper position (both angles are 74 degrees each) - Option A
