Regular pentagonal tiles and triangular tiles are arranged in the pattern shown. the pentagonal tiles are all the same size and shape and triangular tiles are all the same size and shape. find the angle measures of the triangular tiles.

First of all you have to find the missing measurements. The actual measurements for the angles in the hexagon are not given, but they give you an expression. You have to solve for x first so that you can plug it in and find the angle measurement. You have to equal the two sides that are given to you like this: 20x+48=33x+9. You solve for x and then plug it into each angle measurement. This should give you 108. Since it is a regular hexagon all of the sides are equal. If you look at the angle at the top of the hexagon you'll see two triangles and the angle. Since it lies on a straight line, it is all equal to 180. You already have the angle measurement of the hexagon and are missing the triangles. So 180-108=72. 72 is the missing part of the angle. You divide this by 2 in order to find each triangle angle measurements. the answer is 36 degrees. 

What the proper work

Ithink the answer is discovery verbs because they are quite similar to the verb 'discovering'
