Angle angle b is half the size of angle a the measure of angle c is equal to 1 less than 2 times the measure of angle b the sum of the angle a and angle b is 114 can the three angles form a triangle why or why not

No, the angles cannot form a triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle angle B is half the size of angle A. This means that

A = 2B

The measure of angle C is equal to 1 less than 2 times the measure of angle B. This means that

C = 2B - 1

The sum of the angle A and angle B is 114. This means that

A+B = 114

Substituting A = 2B into (A+B = 114), it becomes

2B + B = 114

3B = 114

B = 114/3 = 38 degrees

A = 114 - 38 = 76

C = 2B - 1

C = 2×38 - 1 = 76 - 1

C = 75

Recall, sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. This means that

A + B+ C = 180 degrees. T

Therefore, if we add add angle A, angle B and angle C, it becomes

76 + 38 + 75 = 189 degrees

The sum is more than the sum of the angles in a triangle. Therefore, the angles cannot form a triangle.

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
