ABC is a right triangle. AM is perpendicular to BC. The size of the angle ABC is equal to 55 degrees.

Find the size of angle ACM.

Solutions

Expert Solution

we have been given that the angle ABC is 55⁰. from the diagram, the angle AMB is 90⁰. we obtain the angle BAM as;

we have the angle BAC as 90⁰. we can obtain the angle MAC by subtracting 35⁰ from 90⁰ to get the angle as 55⁰

we add the two angles(CMA and CAM)

90⁰ + 55⁰ = 145⁰

We subtract 145⁰ from 180⁰ to obtain the value of angle ACM as 35⁰

The value of angle ACM is 35⁰
