Question

What is the measure of angle B in the triangle?

Enter your answer in the box.

m∠B=
°__

​

A triangle labeled ABC with angle A as one hundred twenty degrees, angle B as X degrees and angle C as parenthesis X plus sixteen parenthesis degrees

Answer 1

m∠B=22°

Explanation:

All angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees

Knowing this, we now understand:

∠A+∠B+∠C=180°

Let's substitute!

(120)+(x+16)+(x)=180

120+x+16+x=180

136+2x=180

2x=44

x=22°

Let's check to make sure!

Substitute:

120+(22)+16+(22)=180

180=180

Hope this helps! :D

Good luck on your assignment :)
