EXAMPLES REVIEW PROBLEMS

Problem: Look at the figure below. ∠LMP and ∠PMN Problem: Look at the figure below. ∠XYW and ∠WYZ are
are complementary angles. If m∠LMP = 43o, what is the complementary angles. If m∠WYZ = 68o, what is the value
value of m∠PMN? of m∠XYW?

Solution: Solution:
m∠LMP + m∠PMN = 90o ___________________________________________________________
43o + m∠PMN = 90o ___________________________________________________________
m∠PMN = 90o – 43o ___________________________________________________________

c. What are the measures of the given angles?
Answer: m∠B = 25o and m∠C = 100o
d. What is the measure of the missing angle?
Answer: m∠A = 55o
Solution:
m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180o
m∠A + 25o + 100o = 180o
m∠A + 125o = 180o
m∠A = 180o – 125o
m∠A = 55o
FIND A PARTNER AND ANALYZE THE GIVEN PROBLEM.
WORD PROBLEM:
Suppose your older brother is constructing the roof of
your house, which is formed as a triangle. He must be
able to secure the proper angles to make a stronger roof.
Let's say that the two existing angles are 80 degrees and
50 degrees as shown on the figure. Your brother then
goes to the garage to get some wood materials to
complete building the roof. He thinks that the missing
angle is 230 degrees. In fact, he shows to you the
following angle computations he made.
Let x be the missing third angle.
80o + 50o + x = 360o
130o + x = 360o
x = 360o – 130o
x = 230o
Would the wood materials he got be enough to
successfully construct the roof? Is his computations
correct? Why do you think so?
c. What are the measures of the given angles?
