Answer:

37.62 degrees + 47.87 degrees = 85.49 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

For this question we are trying to find the "absolute value" between these 2 numbers, because one of the numbers are negative and the other one is positive, we are going to add both of them together. That is how we got 85.49. In a different equation, we might have done something different.
