let's solve this geometry problem.

Starting Blocks

First, we'll add up the angles inside each triangle:

  • Triangle 1 (Top Left):

    90∘+45∘+45∘=180∘90^\circ + 45^\circ + 45^\circ = 180^\circ

    The sum of angles is 180∘\boxed{180^\circ}.

  • Triangle 2 (Top Right):

    60∘+60∘+60∘=180∘60^\circ + 60^\circ + 60^\circ = 180^\circ

    The sum of angles is 180∘\boxed{180^\circ}.

  • Triangle 3 (Bottom Left):

    110∘+50∘+20∘=180∘110^\circ + 50^\circ + 20^\circ = 180^\circ

    The sum of angles is 180∘\boxed{180^\circ}.

What do you notice?
I notice that the sum of the interior angles of every triangle is always 180∘\boxed{180^\circ}.

Fill in the size of each angle in the triangles below.

  • Triangle ABC:
  1. Identify the type of triangle.

    The tick marks on sides AB and AC indicate that $\triangle ABC$ is an **isosceles triangle**, meaning sides AB and AC are equal. In an isosceles triangle, the angles opposite the equal sides are also equal.  
    Therefore, $\angle C = \angle B$.
    
  2. Determine ∠C\angle C.

    Given $\angle B = 30^\circ$.  
    So, $\angle C = 30^\circ$.
    
  3. Determine ∠A\angle A.

    The sum of angles in a triangle is $180^\circ$.
    $$
    \angle A + \angle B + \angle C = 180^\circ
    $$
    $$
    \angle A + 30^\circ + 30^\circ = 180^\circ
    $$
    $$
    \angle A + 60^\circ = 180^\circ
    $$
    $$
    \angle A = 180^\circ - 60^\circ
    $$
    $$
    \angle A = 120^\circ
    $$
    The angles are: $\angle A = \boxed{120^\circ}$, $\angle B = \boxed{30^\circ}$, $\angle C = \boxed{30^\circ}$.
    
    • Triangle PQR:
  4. Determine ∠R\angle R.

    The sum of angles in a triangle is $180^\circ$.
    $$
    \angle P + \angle Q + \angle R = 180^\circ
    $$
    Given $\angle P = 70^\circ$ and $\angle Q = 40^\circ$.
    $$
    70^\circ + 40^\circ + \angle R = 180^\circ
    $$
    $$
    110^\circ + \angle R = 180^\circ
    $$
    $$
    \angle R = 180^\circ - 110^\circ
    $$
    $$
    \angle R = 70^\circ
    $$
    The angles are: $\angle P = \boxed{70^\circ}$, $\angle Q = \boxed{40^\circ}$, $\angle R = \boxed{70^\circ}$.
