Problema Solution
The sum of the measure of the angle of a triangle is 180 degrees. Write and solve an equation to find the missing measures if one side is 35 degrees and another is 45 degrees
Answer provided by our tutors
We are given the two angles of the triangle that measure 35 and 45 degrees.
Let 'x' represent the measure of the third angle.
Since the sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees we can write:
x + 35 + 45 = 180
