Answer:

$a = 278^(\circ)$

Explanation:

Given

$b = 22^(\circ)$

$Whole\ Angle = 300^(\circ)$

Required

Find the measure of a

Since there is no diagram to support the question, we'll assume that:

$a + b = Whole\ Angle$

This gives:

$a + 22^(\circ) = 300^(\circ)$

Subtract 22 from both sides

$a + 22^(\circ)-22^(\circ) = 300^(\circ)-22^(\circ)$

$a = 300^(\circ)-22^(\circ)$

$a = 278^(\circ)$
