Original question and givens

Exact degrees: a nondegenerate plane triangle has γ=90° and α=10°. Give (β in degrees, α+β in degrees).

  • G001 — Exact degrees: a nondegenerate plane triangle has γ=90° and α=10°. Give (β in degrees, α+β in degrees).

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

angle unit=degrees;exact declared protocol

After

check qualifications before geometric conclusions;no tolerance

Conditions: none

Use the declared exact angle protocol,not a sketch or floating tolerance.Candidate angle data do not by themselves construct a triangle.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_right_angle_protocol · Uses: G001

S002 · calculation

Before

acute-angle budget := sub(180, 90)

After

acute-angle budget = 90

Conditions: none

Under the supplied nondegenerate Euclidean plane-triangle premises,the180-degree sum minus the90-degree right angle leaves90 for the two acute angles.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S001

S003 · calculation

Before

other acute angle beta := sub(90, 10)

After

other acute angle beta = 80

Conditions: none

Subtract the supplied α from the two-acute-angle budget.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S002

S004 · calculation

Before

alpha plus beta := sum(10, 80)

After

alpha plus beta = 90

Conditions: none

Add back to audit the acute-angle sum,retaining the requested field order.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S003

S005 · implies

Before

1≤α=10≤89;β=80

After

α+β=90;both acute

Conditions: none

The strict acute range for α also places β between1 and89 degrees.This derives values under the given right-triangle premises,not a construction proof.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: right_triangle_remainder_premises · Uses: G001, S004

Reverse checks

  • S005 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.
  • S004 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute alpha plus beta with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
  • S003 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute other acute angle beta with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
  • S002 · premise_and_result_audit — Recompute acute-angle budget with exact rational arithmetic, not rounded decimals.
  • S001 · premise_and_result_audit — Check against the original data and this step's premises; a one-way implication is not an equivalence.

Result

(80, 90)

The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
