priyar · Answer

What property did you use to find a?

priyar · Answer

If you notice,a,b and the right angle marked in the figure are the angles of a triangle.That should tell you something

princess_shadow_sob · Answer

angle A is vertical so it's equal to 35 so A=35

ya i know its in a triangle i just cant figure out what b is

priyar · Answer

And what is the sum of angles in a triangle equal to?.
