Question

(05.05 MC) What are the measures of Angles a, b, and c? Show your work and explain your answers.​

Answer 1

<a = 35

<b = 55

<c = 110

Explanation:

Angle a and 35 are vertical angles and vertical angles are equal

<a = 35

We have a triangle with a, b and a right angle. Triangles have angles that add to 180.

<a + <b + 90 = 180

35 + <b + 90 =180

125 + < b = 180

<b = 180-125

<b = 55

Angle c and 70 form a straight line and straight lines are 180 degrees

<c+70 = 180

<c = 180-70

<c = 110
