volume_muteRefer to the figure in which m(∠1) + m(∠3) + m(∠4) = 180o, ∠3 ≅ ∠4, and ∠4 ≅ ∠5. Find the measure of each angle
- m(∠1) =
- m(∠2) =
- m(∠3) =
- m(∠6) =
Correct Answer
(1) 100
(2) 80
(3) 40
(4) 140
Explanation
- m(∠1) = 100o because it is vertical angle to the angle with measure 100o
- m(∠2) = 80o because it supplements angle ∠1. So, 180o - 100o = 80o
- m(∠3) = 40o .Since m(∠1) = 100o, and the sum of m(∠1) + m(∠3) + m(∠4) = 180o. then m(∠3) + m(∠4) = 80o. Given that ∠3 ≅ ∠4, means their measures are equal, then both measures of ∠4 and ∠3 are 40o
- m(∠6) = 140o because ∠6 and ∠5 are supplementary angles and m(∠5) = 40o because ∠4 ≅ ∠5 and consequently m(∠5) = 40o
