The folding chair has different settings that change the angles formed by its parts. Suppose m<2 is 31 and m<3 is 72. Find m<1 using the diagram.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first find out the angle of the triangle inside 2 and 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A- 123 B-113 C- 93 D- 103

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@GirlByte I don't know how to do that...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just look how many degrees in 2 and 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is an acute angle because it has less than 90 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now find the value of the angle.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@GirlByte but none of the answers are less than 90?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Um it's only a solution not the answer it self

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The answer is 103 btw.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now to get this answer you need to follow me -.-

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@GirlByte THen will you please help me get to the answer because I am very confused...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok First off we need to find the value of the angle 2 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which is 31 and 72

OpenStudy (anonymous):

add those and subtract from 180 since a triangle has 180 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@GirlByte 77

OpenStudy (anonymous):

since angle 1 and this angle we found out rite now are supplementary angles we can just subtract 77 from 180 and find the angle of 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes correct. but we are trying the find the answer of <1 right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and the answer is 103 ^_^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you @GirlByte

OpenStudy (anonymous):
