Answer:

m∠C = 117°

Explanation:

If two triangles are similar, their corresponding angles are the same size.

If ΔABC ~ ΔDEF then:

  • m∠A = m∠D
  • m∠B = m∠E
  • m∠C = m∠F

As m∠A = 52° and m∠E = 11° then:

  • m∠A = m∠D = 52°
  • m∠B = m∠E = 11°
  • m∠C = m∠F

Interior angles of a triangle sum to 180°.

Therefore:

⇒ m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°

⇒ 52° + 11° + m∠C = 180°

⇒ 63° + m∠C = 180°

⇒ 63° + m∠C - 63° = 180° - 63°

m∠C = 117°

Therefore, the measure of angle C is 117°.
