Ok so this one you kind of have to jump around a little bit. How many degrees does a triangle have to add up to?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

180 ?

OpenStudy (kohai):

Yes. So it's an isosceles triangle, which means that angle W and angle X are the same angle. So what is 180-59-59?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

62 (:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

omg how easy. thank you .

OpenStudy (kohai):

We're not done yet :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh my continue d:

OpenStudy (kohai):

So we know that the angle of Y is 62*. Notice that this makes a straight line:|dw:1422859752423:dw| So to find the angle of Z, you subtract 62 from 180!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

118 (:

OpenStudy (kohai):

Yes :) Good job

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you (:
