1. Problem Description

We are given a triangle with two of its angles known to be 4242^\circ and 6363^\circ. We need to find the measure of the third angle, which is labeled as A in the figure.

2. Solution Steps

The sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180180^\circ. Therefore, if we know two angles, we can find the third angle by subtracting the sum of the two known angles from 180180^\circ.
Let the three angles of the triangle be α\alpha, β\beta, and γ\gamma. In our case, we have α=42\alpha = 42^\circ and β=63\beta = 63^\circ. We want to find γ\gamma.
The sum of angles in a triangle is:
α+β+γ=180\alpha + \beta + \gamma = 180^\circ
42+63+γ=18042^\circ + 63^\circ + \gamma = 180^\circ
105+γ=180105^\circ + \gamma = 180^\circ
γ=180105\gamma = 180^\circ - 105^\circ
γ=75\gamma = 75^\circ

3. Final Answer

The measure of the third angle A is 7575^\circ.
