Question

In the diagram, the measure of angle 8 is 124°, and the measure of angle 2 is 84°.

what is the measure of angle 7?

56 degrees
84 degrees
96 degrees
124 degrees

Answer 1

(A) 56 on ed genuity

Explanation:

Answer 2

Option A. 56°

Explanation:

In the given diagram, the measure of angle 8 is 124° and ∠2 is 84°.

We have to find the measure of angle 7.

Since angle 7 and angle 8 are complementary angles (sum of angles on a line is equal to 180°)

m∠7 + m∠8 = 180°

angle 7 = 180° - m∠8

∠ 7 = 180° - 124° = 56°

Therefore, option A. 56° is the correct option.
