Algebra.Com's Answer #463261 by 2897696(96)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! First you must know that the total degree of an triangle, which is 180 degree. \n" ); document.write( "then we use the information given to make an equation. \n" ); document.write( "Info: let x= unknown angle, x#2=20, and x#3=30 \n" ); document.write( "MAKING EQUATION \n" ); document.write( "Since we know that the total degree of a triangle is 180, we have to add all the other 3 angles together, to get 180. \n" ); document.write( "EQUATION: 20+30+x=180 \n" ); document.write( "solve for x \n" ); document.write( "50+x=180 (added 20+30) \n" ); document.write( "x=130 (180-50) \n" ); document.write( "Answer: the third degree of the triangle is 130 degrees. \n" ); document.write( " |
