Question

A triangle has angle measures of 27 degrees , 50 degrees, and x degrees, use the triangle sum theorem to find the value of x.

Answer 1

ANSWER:

Angle x is 103 degrees

EXPLANATION

The sum of all the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees

Hence, Let angle A = 27 degrees

Angle B = 50 degrees

Angle C = x degrees

Triangle sum theorem state that

50 + 27 + x = 180

77 + x = 180

x = 180 - 77

x = 103 degrees
