Question

I'm stuck on a few homework questions can someone help me figure them out? I'll fan and give medal : ]

Answer 3

you there?

Answer 4

Yea

Answer 5

What equation would I use for this problem?

Answer 6

ok, so what do the 3 angles of a triangle add up to?

Answer 7

ok, so what do the three angle of a triangle add up to?

Answer 8

180

Answer 9

That's right. So looking at the big triangle, we have the angles 120 and 41

Answer 10

Here are my answer choices:
A) 19
B) 123
C) 124
D) 111

Answer 11

what's 120+41=

Answer 12

161

Answer 13

ok, now what's 180-161=

Answer 14

oh so the answer is A) 19

Answer 15

yep

Answer 16

So now lets look at the smaller triangle

Answer 17

so we know x is 19 and we have the other angle of 38

Answer 18

can you find the other angle using the same method as before?

Answer 19

I don't have to figure out x

Answer 20

It was there to throw me off or over think everything and it did at first

Answer 21

we haven't figured out angle y yet, that was just the first part

Answer 22

we needed to find x though

Answer 23

add up 19 and 38

Answer 24

it said to find y

Answer 25

I'm confused

Answer 26

the problem is: Use the Triangle Sum Property to find the measure of angle y.

Answer 27

yes and we needed to find the angle x in order to find the angle y. now take the angle x which is 19 and add it to 38

Answer 28

180 - (19+38) =

Answer 29

57

Answer 30

180-57=123

Answer 31

that's the answer

Answer 32

so B is my answer not A?

Answer 33

yes

Answer 34

ok

Answer 35

I'm still kind of confused

Answer 36

So y is 123? Or 19?

Answer 37

@10115658

Answer 38

123

Answer 39

ok
