Answer:

Explanation:

in order to find the measurements of all the angles you must find x and to find x you have to realize that the total sum of a triangle inner angles is 180 so you add all those together (48+x+x-44=180) and then if you solve that it gives you 2x+4=180 and then simplify 2x=176 and then x=88

then you plug x into the angles in order to find out the actual measurements

so a is obviously 48 but then b is equal to x which isequal to 88

and then for c it will be x-44 so its 88-44 which equals 44 and that is your answer

if you want to double check take all of your answers and see if they add up to 180
