You have the measurements of angles TUV and TUW, these two angles share the vertex U and one side T, so we can assume they are adjacent:

Angle VUW has its vertex on U and its sides are W and V, this means that angles TUW and TUV are included in angle VUW.

According to the angle addition postulate you can determine that:

VUW= TUV + TUW

VUW= 35º+14º

VUW= 49º

If angle TUV = 35°, and angle TUW = 14º, what is the measure of angle VUW?-example-1
