What are the measures of Angles a, b, and c? Show your work and explain your answers.

Answered by maham237 @



Answer:

(a, b, c) = (30°, 60°, 105°)

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle "a" and 30° are vertical angles, hence equal.

Angle "b" and angle "a" are complementary angles, so b = 90° -30° = 60°.

Angle "c" is supplementary to the one marked 75°, so is 180° -75° = 105°.

___

Angles "a" and "b" are complementary because the sum of angles in a triangle is 180° and the third angle in that triangle is 90°. Then ...

a+b = 180°-90° = 90°

___

75° and "c" are supplementary, because they are linear angles. The angle measure of a line is 180°, so that is their total measure.
