The bisectors of the angles B and C of the triangle ABC intersect at point K. Find the angle BSC if the angle B = 40 degrees and the angle C = 80 degrees.

Consider a triangle ABC.

By definition, the bisectors of angles B, C divide these angles in half.

Hence:

angle KBC = 40 ° / 2 = 20 °,

angle BCK = 80 ° / 2 = 40 °,

angle CKB = 180 ° – KBC – BCK = 180 ° – 20 ° – 40 ° = 120 °.

Answer:

angle BCK = 40 °,

angle CKB = 120 °.
