Question

A triangle has one angle that measures 56∘ and one angle that measures 63∘. The measure of the triangle's third angle is _____ degrees.

Answer 1

61 degrees

Explanation:

Let's do this

So we know all the angles measure in a triangle will be 180 degrees

We have 56 and 63

To find the third, let's add and subtract

56+63=119

Now let's subtract from 180

So 180-119=61

The third angle measures 61 degrees

Now let's add them up and see if they total 180 degrees

So 56+63+61=180

Yay, we found the answer!

The answer is 61 degrees.
