Question

1. two angles are adjacent. the first angle measures $16^\circ$. what is the measure of the second angle if the sum of the angle measures is $50^\circ$? submit

Explanation:

Step1: Define unknown angle

Let the second angle be $x$.

Step2: Set up sum equation

The sum of the two angles is $50^\circ$, so:
$16^\circ + x = 50^\circ$

Step3: Solve for $x$

Subtract $16^\circ$ from both sides:
$x = 50^\circ - 16^\circ$

Answer:

$34^\circ$
