Question

Tapanga drew triangle XYZ on her paper the measure of angle X was 80 degrees angle y was congruent to angle Z what was measure of angle Z

Answer 1

Answer:

50degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angle in the triangle XYZ is 180degrees, hence;

<X + <Y + <Z = 180

Given

m<X = 80degree

m<Y = m<Z

Required

m<Z

Substitute the given angle

80 + m<Z + m<Z = 180

80 + 2m<Z = 180

2m<Z = 180 - 80

2m<Z = 100

m<Z = 100/2

m<Z = 50degrees

Hence the measure of angle Z is 50degrees
