To find the measure of angle R, we can use the fact that the sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180°.
We know that angle J measures 47° and angle W measures 15°. Therefore, the sum of angles J and W is 47° + 15° = 62°.
Since the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°, we can set up the equation:
Angle J + Angle W + Angle R = 180°
Plugging in the known values, we have:
62° + Angle R = 180°
To solve for Angle R, we need to isolate it. We can do that by subtracting 62° from both sides of the equation:
Angle R = 180° - 62°
Simplifying, we get:
Angle R = 118°
Therefore, the measure of angle R is 118°.
