A right triangle has acute angles measuring 2x+6 degrees and 3x−26 degrees. Use the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem to find the measures of the missing angles of the triangle.(4 points)
make it a short answer
To find the missing angle, we first add the two given acute angles:
(2x + 6) + (3x - 26) = 180
5x - 20 = 180
5x = 200
x = 40
Now we can find the measures of the missing angles:
First angle: 2(40) + 6 = 86 degrees
Second angle: 3(40) - 26 = 94 degrees
Therefore, the missing angles of the triangle are 86 degrees and 94 degrees.
