Question

The measures of two angles of a triangle are 36° and 28°. What is the measure of the third angle?

26°

116°

36°

64

Answer 1

64 because 28 plus 36 makes 64

Answer 2

Answer: 116 degrees.

Explanation:

Interior angles of a triangle add to 180.

Knowing the first two angles are 36 and 28, you can subtract them from 180 to find the answer:

180 - 36 - 28 = 116
