In the figure below, angle y and angle x form vertical angles. Angle x forms a straight line with the 50° angle and the 40° angle. A straight line is shown and is marked with three angles. The first angle measures 50 degrees. The second angle measures 40 degrees. The third angle is labeled x. The line between the 40 degree angle and angle x extends below the straight line. The angle formed is labeled angle y.

Write and solve an equation to determine the measure of angle y

answer: the resulting cross section is a rectangle. solution: a plane parallel to the base of a triangular prism will intersect a cross section that is the same shape as its bases. so the cross section is a triangle.

step-by-step explanation:

1. 180°. the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°, for the equilateral triangle that it has three equals side is 60°+60°+60°=180°.

2. 60°. each interior angle of a equilateral triangle is 60°

3. 120°. the measure of ∠m is 120°, the sum of the angles ∠m and ∠n is equal to 180°. so, in order to find the measure of ∠m, we have ∠m+∠n=180° > ∠m=180°-∠n > ∠m=180°-60°=120°.

4. 360°. the sum of the exterior angles of an equilateral triangle is ∠m+∠r+∠x=120°+120°+120°=360°. the exterior angles of any triangle always add 360°.
