Question

HELP ME PLEASE!!!!! Write and solve an equation based on the relationship between the angles in the diagram below to find the value of a.

Answer 1

a = 104

Explanation:

The sum of angles around a point is 360°.

a° +126° +a° +26° = 360°

2a +152 = 360 . . . . collect terms, divide by °

2a = 208 . . . . . . . . subtract 152

a = 104 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
