OpenStudy (anonymous):

no. thats all my teacher gave us

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The angles of the square would be 90 degres and the angles of the triangle would be 60 and all the sides are congruent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then it should be 30 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OHHHH thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!

OpenStudy (phi):

|dw:1362930170638:dw| you have an isosceles triange (because the side of the square is the same length as the side of the equilateral triangle). The angle at the top is 150 the base angles are equal to each other so you have x+x+150= 180 (add 3 must add to 180 degrees in a triangle) 2x + 150= 180 can you solve for x ?
