help me with triangles

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

Nnesha (nnesha):

|dw:1432763277608:dw| acute angle = all angle are less than 90 obtuse = an angle which is greater than 90 but less than 180 for obtuse one angle should be greater than 90

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

so its a Right triangle?

Nnesha (nnesha):

is there a box in the triangle ?

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

yes

Nnesha (nnesha):

remember all triangles add up to 180 degree

Nnesha (nnesha):

where i can't see

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

okay

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

i think its obtuse

Nnesha (nnesha):

and why do ou think that ?

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

because its more than 90 degrees

Nnesha (nnesha):

first find 3rd angle add both angles and subtract 180 from it

Nnesha (nnesha):

let's say x represent 3rd angle \[\huge\rm 35+45+x =180\] solve for x let me know what yo uget

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

so add and subtract it

Nnesha (nnesha):

yes right

OpenStudy (brucebaner):

i got 80

Nnesha (nnesha):

Nnesha (nnesha):
