Math Problem Statement

a+b+c=180 solve for c

Solution

To solve the equation a+b+c=180a + b + c = 180 for cc, you need to isolate cc on one side of the equation. Here's how you can do it:

a+b+c=180a + b + c = 180

Subtract a+ba + b from both sides of the equation:

c=180abc = 180 - a - b

So, the solution for cc is:

c=180abc = 180 - a - b
