Question

The total measure of two adjacent angles is 153°. If one of the adjacent angles measures 104.7°, determine the measure of the other adjacent angle.

1) 194.7°
2) 257.7°
3) 48.3°
4) 75.3°

Answer 1

The measure of the other adjacent angle is 48.3°.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the measure of the other adjacent angle, we can use the fact that the total measure of two adjacent angles is 153°. If one of the adjacent angles measures 104.7°, we can subtract that from 153° to find the measure of the other angle:

153° - 104.7° = 48.3°

So the measure of the other adjacent angle is 48.3°.
