OpenStudy (anonymous):

How many degrees are there total in a triangle?

OpenStudy (shadowcain):

180

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay and you know two of the angles, LMK is 27 and KLM is 34 degrees so what must the third angle be?

OpenStudy (shadowcain):

A. 119° B. 68° C. 61° D. 54° It can't be 5 @DeafBannana, these are my options

OpenStudy (shadowcain):

119

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so now how many degrees are in a line?

OpenStudy (shadowcain):

what? so the answer is not 119

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, that third angle from the triangle plus the unknown angle equals 180 degrees because that is how many degrees are in a line. What is the unknown angle?

OpenStudy (shadowcain):

I'm screwed, I have no idea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So you have a line with two angles on it. These angles will add up to 180 degrees. You know that one angle is 119 degrees so what must the other angle be to add up to 180

OpenStudy (shadowcain):

61?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (shadowcain):

Thanks..... this is so confusing
