The correct Answer is:
To find the measure of the third angle in a triangle when two angles are given, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Triangle Angle Sum Property**: The sum of all angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees. This can be expressed as: \[ \text{Angle A} + \text{Angle B} + \text{Angle C} = 180^\circ \] 2. **Identify the Given Angles**: We have two angles: - Angle A = 72 degrees - Angle B = 58 degrees 3. **Set Up the Equation**: Let Angle C be the measure of the third angle. We can write the equation as: \[ 72^\circ + 58^\circ + \text{Angle C} = 180^\circ \] 4. **Combine the Known Angles**: First, we need to add the measures of Angle A and Angle B: \[ 72^\circ + 58^\circ = 130^\circ \] 5. **Substitute and Solve for Angle C**: Now, substitute the sum of the known angles back into the equation: \[ 130^\circ + \text{Angle C} = 180^\circ \] To find Angle C, subtract 130 degrees from both sides: \[ \text{Angle C} = 180^\circ - 130^\circ \] \[ \text{Angle C} = 50^\circ \] 6. **Conclusion**: The measure of the third angle is: \[ \text{Angle C} = 50^\circ \]
