Question

Given that the measure of ∠x is 110°, and the measure of ∠y is 59°, find the measure of ∠z.

Answer 1

11°

Explanation:

The sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180°. Therefore, we can find the measure of ∠z by subtracting the measures of ∠x and ∠y from 180°:

∠z = 180° - ∠x - ∠y

∠z = 180° - 110° - 59°

∠z = 11°

Therefore, the measure of ∠z is 11°
