In a triangle, two of the angles measure 63�� and 71��. find the measure of the third angle.
since a triangle's angles must all together measure 180 degrees, subtract the two angles from 180: 180 - 71 - 63 = 46
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the measure of the third angle of the triangle be x.
As we know that,
Therefore,
\(\sf \longrightarrow {\angle{A}\ +\ \angle{B}\ +\ \angle{C}\ =\ 180^{\circ}}\)
\(\sf \longrightarrow {63^{\circ}\ +\ 71^{\circ}\ +\ x\ =\ 180^{\circ}}\)
\(\sf \longrightarrow {134^{\circ}\ +\ x\ =\ 180^{\circ}}\)
\(\sf \longrightarrow {x\ =\ 180^{\circ}\ -\ 134^{\circ}}\)
\(\bf \longrightarrow {\underline{x\ =\ 46^{\circ}}}\ \bigstar\)
∴ Hence, the measure of the third angle of triangle is 46°.
