It is a right triangle.

Front

How do you find the measure of a missing angle in a triangle?

Back

To find the measure of a missing angle in a triangle, subtract the sum of the known angles from 180 degrees.

Front

What is the relationship between the angles in a linear pair?

Back

The angles in a linear pair are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180 degrees.

Front

What is the measure of each angle in an equilateral triangle?

Back

Each angle in an equilateral triangle measures 60 degrees.

Front

How do you calculate the measure of an exterior angle of a triangle?

Back

The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two non-adjacent interior angles.

Front

What is the definition of complementary angles?

Back

Complementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 90 degrees.

Front

What is the definition of supplementary angles?

Back

Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 180 degrees.

Front

If two angles are vertical angles, what can be said about their measures?

Back

Vertical angles are equal in measure.

Front

What is the formula for finding the measure of an angle in a polygon?

Back

The formula for finding the measure of an interior angle in a polygon is (n-2) * 180/n, where n is the number of sides.
