Question

Write and solve an equation to find the measure of z?

Answer 1

39°

Solution and Explanation:

The reason why the answer is 39 degrees is because those three angles are on a 180 degree angle. So adding the two angles up and subtracting it by 180 will give you the third missing angle.

112 + 29 = 141

180 - 141 = 39

Answer 2

The three angles together form a 180 degrees angle.

So, the equation would be

`29+Z+112=180`

we can sum the numbers on the left hand side:

`Z+141=180`

and subtract 141 from both sides:

`Z=180-141=39`
