The bottom edge of the mountain is 32 feet long, the left slope is 24 feet long, and the right slope is 26 feet long. Jenny is told that one of the angles measures 538 and one measures 488. What is the angle measure of the peak of the mountain? LIMINT HOIS You can eliminate choice because a triangle with a 538 angle and a 488 angle cannot have an 898 angle. The sum of the three angles in a triangle must be 1808, but the sum of 53, 48, and 89 is 190, not 180. Solution raw a diagram and label the side lengths. The peak angle is opposite the longest side. So, by Theorem 5.10, the peak angle is the largest angle. The angle measures sum to 1808, so the third angle measure is ( ) You can now label the angle measures in your diagram. largest angle ft 26 ft c The greatest angle measure is 798, so the correct answer is ft 488 longest side GUI RTI for amples 1 and 2 1.
