Answer:

Elena is right.

The measure of angle w is;


w^(\circ)=104^(\circ)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the figure in the attached image.

The three angles will add up to 180 degrees because the sum of angles on a straight line equals 180 degrees.


35+w+41=180

Reason: sum of angles on a straight line.

Therefore, Elena is right.

solving the equation for w;


\begin{gathered} w+35+41=180 \\ w+76=180 \\ w=180-76 \\ w=104 \end{gathered}

The measure of angle w is;


w^(\circ)=104^(\circ)
