Question

The triangular base of the given prism has an interior angle with a measure of 80° and an interior angle with a measure of 55°. What is the measure of the unknown angle?

A. 45°
B. 65°
C. 75°
D. 85°

Answer 1

A. 45°

Explanation:

When we are given two measurements of interior angles we add both of those angles together.

Also know that a triangle equals 180 degrees

So when we write out this expression
`80+55+x=180`

`135+x=180\\-135=-135\\x=45`

Hope this helps
