48∘48^\circ

Step-by-step solution

2 steps
  1. Find the measure of ∠C\angle C in △ABC\triangle ABC.

    ∠A+∠B+∠C=180∘\angle A + \angle B + \angle C = 180^\circ 25∘+87∘+∠C=180∘25^\circ + 87^\circ + \angle C = 180^\circ 112∘+∠C=180∘112^\circ + \angle C = 180^\circ ∠C=180∘−112∘=68∘\angle C = 180^\circ - 112^\circ = 68^\circ
  2. The ray from vertex CC divides ∠C\angle C into two angles measuring xx and 20∘20^\circ.

    x+20∘=68∘x + 20^\circ = 68^\circ x=68∘−20∘x = 68^\circ - 20^\circ x=48∘x = 48^\circ

    48^\circ
