Math Problem Statement

I dont need to know how to solve I just want the exact answers

What is the value of e, f, and g based on the triangle with given angles: 66°, 108°, and 11°?

Solution

The solution to the problem involves analyzing the triangle and its internal angles:

  1. Value of gg:

    • The angles in a triangle sum up to 180180^\circ. For the smaller triangle at the top: g+11+e=180.g + 11^\circ + e = 180^\circ. Rearranging for gg: g=18011e.g = 180^\circ - 11^\circ - e.
  2. Value of ee:

    • In the lower triangle, the angles also sum to 180180^\circ. Therefore: 66+108+e=180.66^\circ + 108^\circ + e = 180^\circ. Solving for ee: e=18066108=6.e = 180^\circ - 66^\circ - 108^\circ = 6^\circ.
  3. Substitute e=6e = 6^\circ to find gg: g=180116=163.g = 180^\circ - 11^\circ - 6^\circ = 163^\circ.

  4. Value of ff:

    • For the smaller triangle, the two angles ff and ee are on a straight line, so they sum to 180180^\circ: f+108=180.f + 108^\circ = 180^\circ. Solving for ff: f=180108=72.f = 180^\circ - 108^\circ = 72^\circ.

Final Answers:

  • e=6e = 6^\circ
  • g=163g = 163^\circ
  • f=72f = 72^\circ
