Example Question #1 :Use Variables To Represent Numbers And Write Expressions: Ccss.Math.Content.6.Ee.B.6

Call the three angles of a triangle.

The measure ofis twenty degrees greater than that of; the measure ofis thirty degrees less than twice that of. Ifis the measure of, then which of the following equations would we need to solve in order to calculate the measures of the angles?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The measure ofis twenty degrees greater than the measureof, so its measure is 20added tothat of- that is,.

The measure ofis thirty degrees less than twice that of. Twice the measure ofis, and thirty degrees less than this is 30subtracted from- that is,.

The sum of the measures of the three angles of a triangle is 180, so, to solve for- thereby allowing us to calulate all three angle measures - we add these three expressions and set the sum equal to 180. This yields the equation:

Example Question #3 :Use Variables To Represent Numbers And Write Expressions: Ccss.Math.Content.6.Ee.B.6

Call the three angles of a triangle.

The measure ofis forty degrees less than that of; the measure ofis ten degrees less than twice that of. Ifis the measure of, then which of the following equations would we need to solve in order to calculate the measures of the angles?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The measure ofis forty degrees less than the measureof, so its measure is 40subtracted fromthat of- that is,.

The measure ofis ten degrees less than twice that of. Twice the measure ofis, and ten degrees less than this is 10subtracted from- that is,.

The sum of the measures of the three angles of a triangle is 180, so, to solve for- thereby allowing us to calulate all three angle measures - we add these three expressions and set the sum equal to 180. This yields the equation:
