Question

PLLZZZZZ HELP ME!!!!!! I AM IN NEED OF ASSISTANCE!!!!!!!! I AM DESPERATE!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

∠A = 48°

∠B = 88°

∠C = 44°

Explanation:

We know that the angles in a triangle, added together, equal 180°. Because of this information, we can know that angle A, plus angle B, plus angle C should come out to a total of 180°.

So, how can we represent this using algebra? It should look like this:

`48+x+(x-44)=180`

Now, it shouldn't be that hard to solve for x. My steps are shown below:

`48+x+(x-44)=180\\48+x+x-44=180\\x+x+48-44=180\\2x+4=180\\2x=176\\x=88`

Now we know what x is equal to, and we can find the measure of each angle. Angle A we already know the measure of, it's 48°. Angle B has a measure of x, and we know x is equal to 88°. Angle C is equal to x - 44, which is equal to 88 - 44, or 44°.

Hopefully that makes sense! If you have questions, let me know. :)

Answer 2

m<b= 88º

m<C=44º

m<A=48º (given)

Explanation:

180=48+x+x-44

180=4+2x

176=2x

x=88

x-44=44
