Answer:

Angle A = 60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles

116 = 3y+11 +4y

Combine like terms

116 = 7y+ 11

Subtract 11 from each side

116-11 = 7y+11-11

105 = 7y

Divide each side

105/7 = 7y/7

15 =y

Angle A = 4y

              = 4*15

               = 60

Answer:

Angle A has a measure of 60 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you can find the measure of angle ∠BCA by subtracting 116 from 180, which would get you 64.

Then, you would add all of the measures of the angles together, resulting in the amount of:

[tex]7y+75[/tex]

After that, you would subtract that amount from 180, since the angle sum of all regular triangles is 180. Solve algebraically.

[tex]7y+75=180[/tex]

[tex]7y=105[/tex]

[tex]y=15[/tex]

Since angle A is [tex]4y[/tex], you would multiply 15 by 4 to get 60, which is the measure of angle A.
