1 Solving for Missing angles in Triangles

2 All 3 angles in triangle add up to 180°
A A+B+C=180° =180° B C 45 45° 45°

3 Knowing this we can solve for missing angles!
1) Add up the angles you know =95° 2) Subtract from 180° = 85° A 50° 45° ? C B

4 Some Common Combinations
Equilateral Triangles are also Equiangular . All angles are 60°. =180° A B C

5 Isosceles triangles The longest side is across from the largest angle.
The other 2 angles and sides are equal. Example: If the large side is 120°, what are the other two? 30° 120 30 30

6 These 3 numbers often show up together. =180° 60° 30°

7 Lets get more complicated!
Look for familiar combinations. D 4 2 5 3 6 C 60° E

8 Right bisectors If you see a right bisector in your triangle.
It created two 90° angles. ? 30° 40°
