Answer 2

hey, cute penguin, help him, please

Answer 3

thank you!
and we can start with x
what is the total degree of a line or a supplementary angle

Answer 4

180

Answer 5

correct!
and since we know that the angles with x and 100 make a straight line, we can say:

x+100=180
so what would x be?

Answer 6

80

Answer 7

YES!
ok, so what is the total degree of a triangle?

Answer 8

360

Answer 9

not really, its actually 180.
you should remmeber traingles are 180
and all quadrilaterals are 360
ok?

Answer 10

ok

Answer 11

I am jealous, he is cute and good at teaching too. ha!!

Answer 12

so how we find y and z

Answer 13

she*

and now we can solve for y.
if we know that two of the angles are 62 and 80 and that the triangle =180,then we can say the following:

62+80+y=180
and what would y be?

Answer 14

38

Answer 15

yes! and now z...

we will do the same thing but with different numbers

17+100+z=180
see how i got this^ its like the same as the one we just did.
now what do you get for z?

Answer 16

63

Answer 17

great job!
and now you had solved for your x,y, and z
