Find the value of c.

c = [?]°
1. 144° and 2. (6c)°

1 answer

To find the value of \( c \) based on the angles \( 144^\circ \) and \( (6c)^\circ \), we need to understand the relationship between these two angles.

Assuming that \( 144^\circ \) and \( (6c)^\circ \) are supplementary angles (i.e., they add up to \( 180^\circ \)), 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. Divide by \( 6 \): \[ c = \frac{36}{6} \] \[ c = 6 \]

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