In triangle def, m∠d = (2x 19)°, m∠e = (3x 24)°, and m∠f = 87°. determine the degree measure of the exterior angle to ∠d. 54° 39° 141° 126°

Respuesta :

The exterior angle with angle d is equivalent to 141 degrees, and the value of x is equal to 10.

Explain the term exterior angle?

  • Whenever a side of a triangle is extended, an external angle of the triangle is created.

We must keep in mind that the total of all the angles in a triangle equals 180 degrees in order to solve this puzzle.

The given angles are-

  • m∠D = (2x + 19)°,
  • m∠E = (3x + 24)°, and
  • m∠F = 87°.

Using that formula in this case;

Thus, sum of all angles is 180°.

m < d + m < e + m < f = 180°

(2x + 19)° + (3x + 24)° + 87° = 180°

x = 10°

But if angle D is on a straight line, it is possible to find its exterior angle because angle D plus its exterior angle add up to 180 degrees.

Suppose y = external angle.

m < d + y = 180°

2x + 19 + y = 180°

And x = 10°

2(10) + 19 + y = 180°

y = 141°

Thus, the measure of the degree measure of the exterior angle is found as  141°.
