Answer 3

can you find x (using the fact that the 3 angles in a triangle add up to 180 ) ?

Answer 4

ok look at triangle one. ignore the 11 degree angle for now. just focus on the angle 35 and 59. now the angles inside a triangle will always ALWAYS equal to 180 degrees. knowing that you can find andgle x by setting up the equation 180=59+35+x. now just solve for x by adding 59 and 35 together and then subtracting that value from 180. like so 180-(59+35)=x

Answer 5

so x=86? @zephyr141

Answer 6

yep yep

Answer 7

ok moving on to angle z. now the angles in a circle add up to 360. and draw a line through it at half and you have a straight line and the angle of that line is 180 degrees. now you see a straight line there where you see an angle on one side and a variable z. now do the same as we did to find angle x.

Answer 8

180=86+z
180-86=z

Answer 9

the answer is B.
