Answer:

measure of angle 2 is 32 degrees.

Explanation:

I will refer to the measure of the angles as m1 and m2 (I don't have the angle symbol on my keyboard).

we are looking for measure of angle 2, so let's call m2 "x".

so,

m2 = (x)

m1 = (48 + m2) or m1 = (48 + x)

and we know that:

m1 + m2 = 112

so we substitute the values above into the equation.

m1 + m2 = 112

(48 + x) + (x) = 112

combine like terms:

42 + x + x = 112

42 + 2x = 112

subtract 42 from both sides, leaving us with

2x = 64

divide by 2, giving us

x = 32

remember that we are looking for m2, which is x, so m2 is 32 degrees. hope this helped! (:

Subtract how much more angle 1 is from the total. :

112 - 48 = 64

Divide by 2:

64/2 = 32

Angle 2 = 32 degrees
