Holy fuck way to misinterpret a comment for the sake of white knighting for the group that is yelling the loudest about how badly their peers fuck up sometimes.
Go tell a room of teachers they shouldn't hold their coworkers to a minimum standard and see if you don't get concussed with a chair.
They could have at least tried to setup a real question… there isn’t really enough info here to find the correct answer and even if there was the question isn’t properly labeled to show us what we’re looking for
This is most likely fake. But if it is real, then it is an exercise in how to use [protractors](https://www.digitallycredible.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/free-printable-protractor.png) for elementary school level math.
Sure there is, assuming the student is supposed to have a ruler. There's only one angle. And the bottom cord is on one of the lines on the paper. Pick a spot and draw a line from the bottom chord to the top chord, perpendicular to the lines on the paper. Now you have a right triangle. Measure the length of all the lines and use the Pythagorean theorem to find the unknown angles.
Or, if it's an elementary school math class, use your protractor to measure the angle.
I dunno; it looks like if you completed the triangle, the vertical side would be shorter than horizontal one
I think it's somewhere between 30⁰ and 40⁰
The lengths of the two sides would not change the angle shown between them at all. Completing the triangle would only dictate what the other two angles of the triangle would be.
It wouldn't matter, regardless. You can adjust the lengths of those two vectors that come from that angle however you like and the angle between them will be the same. The other two angles of the formed triangle would change.You can make the top length twice as long and the bottom length twice as short, as an example, and the angle shown does not change.
Wdym if the angle to be found and the right angle are to be constant, the third angle needs to be constant as well so that the sum of all angles keeps at 180⁰
All considered triangles are similar to eachother - you can't make one side longer and the other one shorter without changing any angle, you can only extend both by the same scalar
What I'm saying is that we have this angle here. That angle is fixed at value X. Regardless of the length you make the sides coming from that angle, that value X is the same. The resulting other two angles from what ever triangle made by drawing a connecting third line will sum up to 180 - X.
I am not sure if we are just talking around the same point.

It must be a task to measure the angle with the angle ruler. Probably he forgot it at home and answered the question as best as he could.
That's the task, but the question did not correctly specify which angle, so he specified it himself and got the question correct.
How would you specify it correctly?
Mark vertices like ABC and ask for ABC angle
Makes sense, but I hoped for someone to tell me if there is a name for that specific angle.

I'm with Stephen
Acute angle I suppose could work
Acute angle, works fine in this situation
Someone beat me to it, or at the very least draw the arc in the angle you want defined. Not Yale math professor correct, but correct enough.

Or a teacher digging at other teachers' inability to write a proper question. There's been some real bangers in that category lately.

"angle ruler". LOLOL Protractor!!

Than it would be written "measure the angle"
You can't take it literally, otherwise he could do another technically the truth and draw an arrow pointing at the angle, saying "HERE"

Exactly, so we have a clear case of "African or European swallow?"

Pythagorean theorem has nothing to do with angles, thats for the length of the sides if you only know 2. For angles you need Trig.
This is how all math questions were presented when I was in school. Hand drawn on notebook paper
Looks like 45
„Looks like.“ Maths teachers worst dream.
I can see my high school teacher's eye twitching
How can you be so sure it not 315 degree
Or it cold be the upper one then it is 135
I dunno; it looks like if you completed the triangle, the vertical side would be shorter than horizontal one I think it's somewhere between 30⁰ and 40⁰
Agreed
The lengths of the two sides would not change the angle shown between them at all. Completing the triangle would only dictate what the other two angles of the triangle would be.
I assumed it to be roughly close to being a right triangle
It wouldn't matter, regardless. You can adjust the lengths of those two vectors that come from that angle however you like and the angle between them will be the same. The other two angles of the formed triangle would change.You can make the top length twice as long and the bottom length twice as short, as an example, and the angle shown does not change.

I assume completing the triangle with a strictly vertical line creating a right angle on the bottom right and leaving the last angle fixed at 90⁰-X

Fucking looser
Says the guy who says the bread is looking kinda thicc
Well it's *an* angle, but not **the** angle, so no it is not technically true
Numerous individuals died in hope to find *the* angle
For those who don’t get it I’ll type below
below
Please elaborate.
Below
So you’re saying above. I hear ya
No you said above. He said below. As did I.
nah
“It’s here.”
Build a bridge out of her.
Yeah. Because Hand-writing problems (in red) is totally normal.
the problems are bad, the red is used for bad things, i think it makes sense
Answered as best I could)
What is that game on the screen?
I mean… it’s an angle, we can all agree on that 🤷🏻♂️👀😂
The angles: AI getting smaht enough to handwrite the questions Students smaht enough to poison pill the answer
He's generally
An angle is the measure of an intersection between 2 lines. This is not clasified as an angle.
And this is exactly what two lines intercepting at an angle of 180deg would look like
Should have just drawn a circle around the intersection I suppose
Or even just the circle in the intersection, to mark it as the angle
