Write a list of steps that are needed to find the measure of angle B.

Question

A measures 72 degrees and C measures 113.
What does B measure?

My Equation Answer: b=180-(a+c) 72+113=185 180-185= -5

My Word Answer: When you need to find the measure of B the answer is -5. First, you need to find the sum of side A (72) and C (113). Which equals 185. Second, you take 180 and subtract 185 to get -5. Which means the measure of B is -5.

please check and tell me if I am right. If I am wrong help me get the right answer.

Answer 1

Ms. Sue already answered this for you, and told you to check for a typo.

If the angles are inside a triangle and two of them already add up to 185, then you don't have a triangle.
The question the way it stands is bogus and cannot be answered.

Answer 2

Contact your teacher!!! This answer is wrong and your teachers are here to help. Each one of us offers one on one tutoring and want to help you!! Copying answers will get a zero!

Answer 3

Find the inside angle C by using supplementary angles Then find angle A by using all angles in a triangle add to 180 degrees
