Question

Jay is measuring the angles of a triangle. He gets 30 degrees and 100 degrees, what is the measured third angle?

Answer 1

50 degrees

Explanation:

In any triangle, there are 180 degrees. If we add 100 degrees plus 30 degrees to get 130, simply subtract that from 180 the get the measure of the third angle. (180-130= 50) Hope this helps!

Answer 2

50°

Explanation:

the sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180° , that is

3rd + 30° + 100° = 180°

3rd + 130° = 180° ( subtract 130° from both sides )

3rd angle = 50°
