Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows a triangle with vertices as A B C. Angle A on top is 120 degrees and angle B on the left is 34 degrees. Vertex C is on the right.
Use the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem to find the measure of the third angle of the triangle shown.

To find the measure of the third angle of the triangle, we can use the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem. This theorem states that the sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees.
Given that angle A is 120 degrees and angle B is 34 degrees, we can subtract the sum of these two angles from 180 degrees to find the measure of the third angle:
180 degrees - 120 degrees - 34 degrees = 26 degrees
Therefore, the measure of the third angle of the triangle shown is 26 degrees.
