Using the information in the adjoining figure, find the measures of ∠a, ∠b and ∠c.
i. ∠c + 100° = 180° [Angles in a linear pair]
∴ ∠c = 180° – 100°
∴ ∠c = 80°
ii. ∠b = 70° [Vertically opposite angles]
iii. ∠a + ∠b +∠c = 180° [Sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180°]
∠a + 70° + 80° = 180°
∴ ∠a = 180° – 70° – 80°
∴ ∠a = 30°
∴ ∠a = 30°, ∠b = 70°, ∠c = 80°
i. ∠c + 100° = 180° [Angles in a linear pair]
∴ ∠c = 180° – 100°
∴ ∠c = 80°
ii. ∠b = 70° [Vertically opposite angles]
iii. ∠a + ∠b +∠c = 180° [Sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180°]
∠a + 70° + 80° = 1800
∴ ∠a = 180° – 70° – 80°
∴ ∠a = 30°
∴ ∠a = 30°, ∠b = 70°,∠ c = 80°
