Triangles and Their Side Lengths

Question 12 • High School Math 2 A

Triangle QRS is a right triangle with the right angle at vertex R. The sum of m∠Q and m∠S must be

Answer
A
equal to 45°.
B
greater than 45° and less than 90°.
C
equal to 90°.
D
greater than 90° and less than 180°.

Explanation

The angles in every triangle add up to 180°. Since ∠R is a right angle, it measures 90°, so m∠Q + m∠S = 180° − 90° = 90°. Therefore, the sum is equal to 90° (choice C).
