Question

The measure of the angle  is ______.

  1. 80
  2. 58
  3. 42
  4. 138

hintHint:

If a side of a triangle is produced, then the exterior angle so formed is equal to the sum of the two interior opposite angles. solve the equation to find x and substitute the value of x to find the angle.

The correct answer is: 58


    If a side of a triangle is produced, then the exterior angle so formed is equal to the sum of the two interior opposite angles.

    (10x- 2)°+  (13x+2) ° = 138° 

    23x°  = 138°

    x° = 6°

    Substituting the value of the x to find the values of angles 

    (13x+2) °= 13 x 6° + 2° = 78°+2° = 80°

    (10x- 2)° = 10 x 6° - 2° = 60° - 2° = 58°.

    Therefore, required angle is 58°.

    The measure of the missing angle is

    ¶A triangle has three angles or sides, and the sum of the angles or sides is always 180 degrees, the missing angle in the triangle's measurement is found by first taking the sum of the other two angles and then subtracting that number from 180.
    Exterior Angle of Triangle Properties
    The exterior angles of a triangle have three fundamental properties.
    • In a triangle, every exterior angle and corresponding interior angle create a linear pair of angles. So, the interior and exterior angles add up to 180°.
    • A triangle's exterior angle equals the sum of its two opposite interior angles (remote interior angles). The Exterior Angle Theorem is another name for this.
    • The sum of the exterior angle of a triangle is 360°.
