@ShadowLegendX can you help? :3

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

How many degrees in a triangle?

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Do you know?

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Degress=180(n-2) where n is the number of sides there are 3 sides in a triangle so we have 180(3-2) so 180(1) there is 180 degrees in one triangle, does this make sense?

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

Im sorry, I was offline XD Im back!

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Okay thats alright

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

And yes, that makes sense! :3

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Ever triangle is 180 degrees so first we have to find that missing angle in the triangle do you have any ideas?

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

Hmmm... Im not sure

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

We have two angles in the triangle right?

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

yes

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Do you think we should add them subtract them?

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

ummm, add them first :3

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Yes because we want to find the sum of the two angles than we can subtract from 180 good

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

Okay!

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

So we add 72+48=?

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

Yes, that is.. \[72 + 48 = 120 \]

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

then we do.. \[180 - 120 = 60\]

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

is that correct? :3

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Yay :) were really close thats the right answer for that angle, we have to fibd the angle next to it

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

okay!

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Do you know how many degrees are in a straight line?

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Because were solving for angle s with respect to segment P and E

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

yes, 180?

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Good! so we have the angle 60 so what would have to do to find the angle next to it because it forms a straight line

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

Ohhh!! Wouldnt we do... \[180 - 60 = 120?\]

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Yes!!!! Yay :))))

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

yayyyy!

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

So would I put 120 as the answer? :3

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Yes don't forget the degrees!

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

Good job :)

OpenStudy (x__hazel__x):

Yes, thank you sooo much!!!

OpenStudy (kayders1997):

No problem!!!! :)
