Question

If the angle NME = x+97, the angle EML = x+66, and the angle NML = 141, find the angle EML

Answer 1

∠ EML = 94°

Explanation:

See the attached diagram.

The three angles ∠ NME, ∠ EML and ∠ NML together make 360°.

Now, ∠ NME = x + 97, ∠ EML = x + 66 and ∠ NML = 141°

Hence, (x + 97) + ( x + 66) + 141 = 360

⇒ 2x + 304 = 360

⇒ 2x = 56

⇒ x = 28

So, ∠ EML = x + 66 = 28 + 66 = 94° (Answer)
