An isosceles triangle has 2 angles that measure 37 degrees each. Write 2 different equations that could be solved to find the measure of the 3rd

Respuesta :

Answer:

The third angle of isosceles triangle is 106°   .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The measures of equal angles of isosceles triangle = 37°

i.e [tex]\Theta _1[/tex] =  [tex]\Theta _2[/tex] = 37°

Let The third angle of isosceles triangle =  [tex]\Theta _3[/tex]

Now,

An isosceles triangle is that whose opposite sides are equal and two angles are equal

Now, From the property of Triangle

The sum of all three angles of Triangle = 180°

i.e  [tex]\Theta _1[/tex] +  [tex]\Theta _2[/tex] +  [tex]\Theta _3[/tex] = 180°

∵  [tex]\Theta _1[/tex] =  [tex]\Theta _2[/tex] = 37° (given)

So,  37° +  37° +  [tex]\Theta _3[/tex] = 180°

Or, 74° +  [tex]\Theta _3[/tex] = 180°

Or,  [tex]\Theta _3[/tex] = 180° - 74°

∴  [tex]\Theta _3[/tex] = 106°

So, The third angle of isosceles triangle =  [tex]\Theta _3[/tex] = 106°

Hence,The third angle of isosceles triangle is 106°   . Answer
