Question

Two angles in a triangle measure 56 degrees and 68 degrees, what is the measure of the third angle ?

Answer 1

56°

Explanation:

Sum of angles in a triangle= 180°

First Triangle= 56°

Second Triangle= 68°

Third Triangle= a

Ttherefore,

Sum of angles in a triangle= 56+68+a

180 = 56+68+a

180 = 124 + a

a = 180-124

a = 56°

Since 'a' was the third angle

Hence, The measure of the third triangle is 56°

The triangle now has <56°, <56°<, <68°.
