The sum a triangle 's angles should add up to 180°.The formula that is used for a triangle is b+h+x=180.A right triangle sometimes has a missing angle such as 35+35+? The missing angle would be 90. The reason the sum a triangle 's angles should add up to 180°.The formula that is used for a triangle is b+h+x=180.A right triangle sometimes has a missing angle such as 35+35+? The missing angle would be 90.The reason the missing side would be 90 is because a right triangle has a right angle in it and a right angle always adds up to 90°.

I believe that all the ramps will go good. The reason I believe that all the ramps will do good is because we all have the same materials and books. The materials we have are:Books,Piece of wood,and the object that we are using to roll down the ramp.

the missing side would be 90 is because a right triangle has a right angle in it and a right angle always adds up to 90°.

My team and I are going to do an experiment on making a triangle in a ramp form. We are trying to see how many math and science books it will take to make a good enough triangle for a cup to roll down. The ramp can’t be too high or too low. If the ramp is too high, then the cup will roll down to fast and it will fall off the ramp. If the ramp is too low then the cup will not roll off the ramp.

I will calculate how fast the cup rolled down the ramp. I will also watch how slow the cup went. I want the cup to go down the ramp fast, but not too fast. If the cup rolls down without a problem, then I know that it was a good ramp. If the ramp rolls down to fast, then I know it was too high. If the ramp rolls down to slow or not at all I know it was too
