Find the value of c.

c = [?] degrees
144 degrees and (6c) degrees

1 answer

To find the value of \( c \) in the equation involving angles, we first need a bit more clarity about how these angles are related.

If we're assuming that \( 144^\circ \) and \( 6c \) degrees are supplementary angles (i.e., their sum is \( 180^\circ \)), we can set up the equation:

\[ 144 + 6c = 180 \]

Now, we can solve for \( c \):

  1. Subtract \( 144 \) from both sides: \[ 6c = 180 - 144 \] \[ 6c = 36 \]

  2. Now, divide both sides by \( 6 \): \[ c = \frac{36}{6} = 6 \]

Thus, the value of \( c \) is \( 6 \) degrees.

If these angles are meant to be added in any other way (for example, if we need to consider them as part of a triangle or in another geometric context), please specify!
