Answer:

  • m∠A = 55°

-----------------------------

A and C are congruent angles opposite to congruent sides of the isosceles triangle.

  • m∠A = m∠C
  • 3x + 40 = x + 50
  • 3x - x = 50 - 40
  • 2x = 10
  • x = 5

Find the measure of ∠A

  • m∠A = 3×5 + 40 = 15 + 40 = 55

Answer:

The angle A is 55°.

Explanation:

We know that,

→ <A = <C

Now the value of x will be,

→ 3x + 40 = x + 50

→ 3x - x = 50 - 40

→ 2x = 10

→ x = 10/2

→ [ x = 5 ]

Then the value of m<A is,

→ A = 3x + 40

→ A = 3(5) + 40

→ A = 15 + 40

→ [ A = 55° ]

Hence, the answer is 55°.
