What do you need?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
One angle of a right triangle measures fifty-five degrees. Which could be the measure of one of the other angles?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So a triangle measures up to 180 degrees right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Is this an acute triangle, obtuse or right?

i have choices if you want them
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Sure,m throw them up.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
right
OpenStudy (anonymous):
35, 45, 55, 125
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Okay so you know that a right angle is 90 degrees right?

yep
OpenStudy (anonymous):
And you already have 55 for another angle, so what do you think you should do to get 180 and find that last angle?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
125?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ohh i get it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thanks i have more questions if u have time

Hold on you did that wrong.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh sorry
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Lets go back to the first one
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So, 90 is right angle, right? and you have 55 for the other?

yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So, should we add or subtract those?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
subtract
OpenStudy (anonymous):
which is 35!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You would actually add 90+55 and get 145.
Then subtract 180-145

Use the Triangle Sum Property to find the measure of angle y.There are two triangles. The two triangles overlap and share one angle, x. The smaller triangle’s angles measure, x degrees, thirty-three degrees and y degrees. The larger triangle measures x degrees, forty-nine degrees and one hundred-fifteen degrees.
a, 124
b, 131
c, 115
d, 16

The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Definition ^
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Okay so do you see that 115 on the bottom left?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
180-155?

Hold on.
So you know y is going to be 115 too because those sides are adjacent.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thats the answer?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes sir!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh that was easy
