If one angle of a triangle is 90 degrees, what can you say about the other two angles?

Back

The other two angles must sum to 90 degrees, making the triangle a right triangle.

What is the measure of the third angle if two angles of a triangle measure 50 degrees and 60 degrees?

Back

The third angle measures 70 degrees (50 + 60 + x = 180, so x = 70).

If a triangle has angles measuring 40 degrees and 100 degrees, what is the measure of the third angle?

Back

The third angle measures 40 degrees (40 + 100 + x = 180, so x = 40).

If one angle of a triangle is 30 degrees and another is 50 degrees, what is the measure of the third angle?

Back

The third angle measures 100 degrees (30 + 50 + x = 180, so x = 100).

In a triangle, if one angle is 80 degrees, what is the maximum possible measure of the other two angles?

Back

The maximum possible measure of the other two angles is 100 degrees (80 + x + y = 180, so x + y = 100).
