Help!?!? What is the measure of the angle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hi. triangle FAD is a right angled triangle,

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and we know that the total of angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so we now know 2 of the 3 angles in the triangle FAD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the angle at F is 48 degrees and the angle at D is a right angle, or 90 degrees.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the angle at A must make the whole triangle add up to 180 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhhhh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A+F+D= 180 A+48+90 = 180. what is A?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

42?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeyyyy!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):
