Answer:

Explanation:

Let the third angle = x

Sum of three angles of a triangle = 180

x + 41 + 5 = 180

x + 46 = 180

x = 180 - 46

x = 134

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle needs to be 180.

To find the 3rd angle subtract the two k own angles from 180

3rd angle = 180 - 41 -5 = 134 degrees
