Three straight lines pass through a point O, making 6 angles around it. On one side of one of the lines lie three adjacent angles; two of them are 50° and 70°. Find the third angle (in degrees).

  • C54
  • D120

Step-by-Step Solution

Three angles on one side of a line at O sum to 180°: 50 + 70 + third = 180, so third = 180 - 120 = 60°.
Answer: B) 60
