Question

Two of the angles in a triangle measure 1 degree and 5 degrees.what is the measure of the third angle?

Answer 1

174

Explanation:

All 3 angles in a triangle add up to 180.

So we are given 2 angles and we need to find angle 3. I am going to call the missing 3rd angle 'x'.

1 + 5 + x = 180.

Solve for x

6 + x = 180

Subtract 6 from both sides

x = 174
