Write a list of steps that are needed to find the measure of angle B.

A measures 72 degrees and C measures 113.
What does B measure?

My Equation Answer: b=180-(a+c) 72+113=185 180-185= -5

My Word Answer: When you need to find the measure of B the answer is -5. First, you need to find the sum of side A (72) and C (113). Which equals 185. Second, you take 180 and subtract 185 to get -5. Which means the measure of B is -5.

Is this a good answer

How can an angle's degrees be negative?

Is this a triangle, rectangle, or ??

triangle

Please check for a typo. Obviously the answer is not -5 degrees.

then can you help me find the answer

angle not side

To find the measure of angle B, you can follow these steps:

1. Start with the given measures of angles A and C, which are 72 degrees and 113 degrees, respectively.
2. Add the measures of angles A and C together: 72 + 113 = 185 degrees.
3. The sum of angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees, so subtract the sum from step 2 from 180: 180 - 185 = -5 degrees.

However, it is not possible for an angle to have a negative measure, so the value of -5 degrees for angle B is not valid. It is important to note that angles cannot be negative, and any solution yielding a negative angle should be reconsidered.
