OpenStudy (danjs):

The three angles for a triangle will add up to 180 degrees. They gave you one at 95 degrees... that leaves 180-95 = 85 degrees left to split between the other two angles... they both Must be acute,

OpenStudy (danjs):

and there are many of them, as long as the 2 unknown angles add up to 85 degrees.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so how do you get the answer

OpenStudy (danjs):

an acute angle is less than 90 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (danjs):

|dw:1437937148445:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (danjs):

so let a = 1 degree, then b = (180 - 95 - 1) = 84 degrees let a = 2, a = 3, a= 4, ... there are more than 2 just there...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think the answer is 1

OpenStudy (danjs):

|dw:1437937340038:dw|

OpenStudy (danjs):

depends on side lengths

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what do you think the answer is

OpenStudy (danjs):

the two unknown angles just have to add to 85 degrees... so 1 + 84 2 + 83 3 + 82 . . .more than 2 fore sure

OpenStudy (danjs):

there are no restrictions on the lengths of the sides

@Michele_Laino

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you think the answer is?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

I agree with @DanJS

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you sure its more than 2

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

yes!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i hope your right because everyone has different answers. Some people say its 1 or none @Michele_Laino
