Question

solve for x and y. solve for x and y. two angles in a triangle measure 27° and 83°. what is the measure of the third angle? a 110° b 70° c 80° d cannot be determined.

Explanation:

Step1: Use the property of triangle angles

The sum of angles in a triangle is \(180^{\circ}\). For the problem in the bottom - right (question 8), let the third angle be \(x\). Then \(x + 27^{\circ}+83^{\circ}=180^{\circ}\).

Step2: Solve the equation
