Question

when 15 is subtracted from the measure of an angle, the result is the measure of a right angle. what is the measure of the original angle?

Answer 1

105

Explanation:

Answer 2

105° is the measurement of the original angle.

Explanation:

Let the measure of an angle is x.

Then by the statement of the question we can form an equation

x - 15 = 90

(When 15 is subtracted form the measure of an angle, the result is the measure of a right angle)

x = 90 + 15 = 105°

Therefore the original angle is 105°.
