Question

What is the measure of the angle formed by First

Street and Main Street? Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

50 degrees

Explanation:

Is that a right angle indicator joining that 40 degrees with the unknown angle? If so, then that makes things simple because you can simply use the rule of complementary angles.

90 = 40 + x, x being the unknown angle.

x = 50

And using the power of vertical angles theorem, we can use that 50 degrees to find that to be the angle measure created by First St. and Main St.
