Problem
In triangle , point is on and point is on such that . The measure of is , and the measure of is . What is the measure of ?
Solution
If the measure of is , then the measure of is since they are supplementary angles. The measure of is also since sides and are parallel. Now we have two of the three angles in triangle . To find the third, we calculate . The measure of is .
Final answer
80^{\circ}
