Question
- use the diagram to answer the question: what are the measures of the interior angles? 40°, 70°, 70° 70°, 70°, 70° 70°, 55°, 55° 70°, 10°, 10°
Step1: Find the measure of ∠ABC
Use the property of adjacent angles on a straight line.
$$
\angle ABC = 180^{\circ}- 110^{\circ}=70^{\circ}
$$
Step2: Determine the type of triangle
Since \(AB = BC\), \(\triangle ABC\) is an isosceles triangle. So \(\angle BAC=\angle BCA\).
Step3: Calculate \(\angle BAC\) and \(\angle BCA\)
Use the angle - sum property of a triangle (\(\angle A+\angle B+\angle C = 180^{\circ}\)). Let \(\angle BAC=\angle BCA = x\).
$$
x + 70^{\circ}+x=180^{\circ}
$$
$$
2x=180^{\circ}-70^{\circ}
$$
$$
2x = 110^{\circ}
$$
$$
x = 55^{\circ}
$$
