Question

Write an equation and solve for the missing anglemeasure.

Equation: _______________________

Angle g = ___________

Answer 1

Equation:
`143 + g = 180`

`g =37`

Explanation:

Given

The attached figure

Required

The equation to find g and the solution

From the attached: Angles ACD, DCE and ECB lie on a straight line.

Where

`ACD = 90`
`DCE = 53`
`ECB = g`

This means that:

`ACD + DCE + ECB = 180`

`90 + 53 + g = 180`

`143 + g = 180`

Subtract 143 from both sides

`-143 + 143 + g = 180 - 143`

`g = 37`
