Question
if these two figures are similar, what is the measure of the missing angle? 59° 89° 32° ?
Step1: Recall angle - property of similar figures
Similar figures have equal corresponding angles.
Step2: Recall angle - sum property of a triangle
The sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°. For the first triangle, the angles are 59°, 89°, and 32°. For the second similar triangle, the missing angle corresponds to one of the angles of the first triangle.
Step3: Identify the missing - angle
Since the triangles are similar, the missing angle is equal to one of the angles of the first triangle. The missing angle is 59°.
