Any letter that you like. And it need not be a Greek letter. In fact, it need not even be a letter.

A triangle has one angle of 80 degrees and another of 60 degrees how many degrees must there be in third angle?

The internal angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees. 80 + 60 = 140 140 + x = 180 (x= the unknown angle) x = 180-140 x = 40 The unknown angle is 40 degrees


What does a theta mean in math?

Theta is most often used to represent unknown angles, especially in the study of trigonometry. Theta represents an angle in degrees, but not in radians. --------------------------------------- Theta (θ) is a Greek letter, typically denoting an unknown angle. Depending on the context of the problem, it could be in degrees or radians.


What type of triangle has an angle that measures 120 degrees and an angle that measures thirty degrees?

An isosceles triangle, because the angles of a triangle add up to 180 and you already know that one angle measures 120 degrees, the other is 30, and so the unknown angle must also be 30 degrees. Since two of the angles are the same, two of the sides are going to be the same, making it an isosceles triangle.
