Example Question #23 : Ssat Middle Level Quantitative (Math)
Call the three angles of a triangle .
The measure of is twenty degrees greater than that of ; the measure of is thirty degrees less than twice that of . If is the measure of , then which of the following equations would we need to solve in order to calculate the measures of the angles?
The measure of is twenty degrees greater than the measure of , so its measure is 20 added to that of - that is, .
The measure of is thirty degrees less than twice that of . Twice the measure of is , and thirty degrees less than this is 30 subtracted from - that is, .
The sum of the measures of the three angles of a triangle is 180, so, to solve for - thereby allowing us to calulate all three angle measures - we add these three expressions and set the sum equal to 180. This yields the equation:
Example Question #2 : How To Find The Measure Of An Angle
Call the three angles of a triangle .
The measure of is forty degrees less than that of ; the measure of is ten degrees less than twice that of . If is the measure of , then which of the following equations would we need to solve in order to calculate the measures of the angles?
The measure of is forty degrees less than the measure of , so its measure is 40 subtracted from that of - that is, .
The measure of is ten degrees less than twice that of . Twice the measure of is , and ten degrees less than this is 10 subtracted from - that is, .
The sum of the measures of the three angles of a triangle is 180, so, to solve for - thereby allowing us to calulate all three angle measures - we add these three expressions and set the sum equal to 180. This yields the equation:
