Question

The measure of the angle in the given figure ___.

• A. ${124}^{\circ }$
• B. ${144}^{\circ }$
• C. ${36}^{\circ }$
• D. ${44}^{\circ }$

Answer 1

The correct option is B

${144}^{\circ }$

From the figure, we can see that the angle is an obtuse angle (measured from left to right).

The arm of the angle is between 140 and 150 degrees and is 4 degrees after 140.

∴ the angle measures ${144}^{\circ }$.
