A triangle equals 36 in,2 angles equal 12 in and 8 in. find L, the length of the third angle
16 is the third angle
Your question makes no sense
angles are not measured in inches.
did you mean
"A triangle has a side 36 in, and 2 angles of 12º and 8º "?
Is the given side contained between the two angles?
Please restate your question properly.
To find the length of the third angle in the triangle, we can use the fact that the sum of all angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees.
Let's assume the lengths of the angles are denoted as A, B, and C. We're given that angles A and B are equal to 12 in and 8 in, respectively. Angle C is the third angle, and we need to find its length, denoted as L.
We know that A + B + C = 180 degrees. So, substituting the given values:
12 in + 8 in + L = 180 degrees
To find L, we first need to determine the sum of the given angles:
12 in + 8 in = 20 in
Substituting the sum of the given angles into the equation:
20 in + L = 180 degrees
Now, we can solve for L:
L = 180 degrees - 20 in
Therefore, the length of the third angle (L) is 160 degrees.
