can someone help
The question is...?
with what?
the ` a ` and ` 30 degree ` angles are called ` vertical angles ` what do you know about vertical angles?
each of the pairs of opposite angles made by two intersecting lines.
yes, that is google's definition I would recommend looking at the picture options of "vertical angles", it might be more helpful sometimes
ok
so for my question i just need to find out what the measures of angles a, b, and c
how do i do that ?
yes, vertical angles are equal to each other a and 30 are vertical angles
what is a equal to?
so a is = to 30?
yes :)
how di i find what b is equal to ?
a, b, and the 90 degree angles make a triangle the angles in a triangle should always add up to 180 degrees
we already know that ` a = 30 ` so this means that a + b + 90 = 180 then 30 + b + 90 = 180 what would b equal?
would i do 180 + 180?
nope... What can I add to 30 + 90 to get 180?
60
nice :)
so b=60
yes
ok and how do i find c?
c and the 75 degree angle are a "linear pair"
linear pairs will always add up to equal 180 degrees
what numbers would i add?
c + 75 = 180
c=105 ?
you got it
