Question

Leslie and Surekha were standing on opposite sides of a road. Suddenly, they spotted a puppy stranded on the road and both rushed straight to where the puppy was, to pick it up. If Leslie ran at an angle of 35 degrees to the edge of the road and Surekha at an angle of 70 degrees, at what angle did their path meet?

Answer 1

Answer:

75°

Step-by-step explanation:

we can form a triangle to help us understand how to solve this problem:

                                                    puppy

∠ Leslie = 35°                                                   ∠ Surekha = 70°

If Leslie's angle is 35° and Surekha's angle is 70°, that gives us a total of 105°. Since the sum of the triangle's three angles is 180°, then the angle at which they will meet is 180° - 105° = 75°

Answer 2

In this exercise, we have to calculate the angle of the path that they met, so we will have:

75°

We know that the geometric figure in question is a triangle and that the sum of its internal angles must be equal to 180 degrees, thus:

$180-105=X\\180-105=75$
