i think it is ninety degrees is this shape can be a isoslate triangle,I'll explain in the class
Tony. Please take some time to explain your answer in writing. Everyone is interested in how you arrived at your answer.
FIne, mr.j. follow the steps,
1) draw a line from that 20 degree angle to the 30 degrees one. Now it becomes an isoslate triangle.
and a small triangle inside
2)all we know an isoslate triangle is 180 degrees right? minus 40 from 180.
3) now the isoslate triangle's other 2 angles are 70 degrees right?
4) minus 20 degree in the left side, and minus 30 in the right side.
5) now the small triangle's 2 angles are 40 degrees and 50 degrees. What's the last angle.
Icewizard: 90 degrees?
Mr. Tony Zheng : right
and u left it obvious that ur ice wizard tony......-_-
I agree that the answer is 90 degrees. However, I don't agree that the triangle is isosceles.
I like the idea of drawing a line from Q to R forming triangle PRQ. As Tony states the sum of the angles in PRQ equal 180.
Let try explaining how to get this answer again without saying the PQR is isosceles. Tony ? Christine? Anyone else?
And anyway, 2 people couldn't type in one comment . Nice try Tony, real nice, hahaha its gonna take more than that to stop me... or at least, find out who i am! ;) -_-
" animegirlsakura" is soooo right......not! christine will never find out who i am!
my picture can be found in google, christine, me and icewizard just like this game, but nice guess.
wait, that amine *** girl know who icewizard is, right? then i know who that amine *** is, she is christine, because look at her profile, over 89% chance is her.
first of all tony im no anime girl and u can't spell -_- and this person anime girl my gosh and ur not smart enough to figure out who animegirlsakura is though u r going into high school still though and u guys go check out smart allans blog just go look and btw the animegirl doesn't even have a damn profile
