Triangle Angle Verification: Do 94°, 36.5°, and 49.5° Form a Valid Triangle?

Question

Tree angles have the sizes 94°, 36.5°, and 49.5. Is it possible that these angles are in a triangle?

Video Solution

Solution Steps

00:00 Determine whether the following angles can form a triangle
00:03 The sum of angles in a triangle equals 180
00:07 Substitute in the relevant values according to the given data and proceed to solve
00:16 The sum of angles equals 180, therefore they could form a triangle
00:21 This is the solution

Step-by-Step Solution

Let's remember that the sum of angles in a triangle is equal to 180 degrees.

We'll add the three angles to see if their sum equals 180:

94+36.5+49.5=180 94+36.5+49.5=180

Therefore, these could be the values of angles in some triangle.

Answer

Possible.
