If one of the acute angles in a right triangle is 68°, what is the measure of the other acute angle?

A.
22°

B.
32°

C.
68°

D.
90°

Answer 1

A is the answer, because if it's a right triangle, one of the sides is already 90 and we know another side is 68. All angles add up to 180, so we add 90 and 68 together then subtract that sum from 180. So we will get:

180-158...

...which is A. 22 degrees.

Hope I helped sorry if I'm wrong!

Answer 2

The answer is A. 22°.

The sum of all of the angles in a right triangle must equal up to 180°. So, with what was given:

Right triangle = one angle is 90°

One of the acute angles = 68°

90 + 68 = 158

Sum of all angles in a right triangle = 180

180 - 158 = 22.

Answer = A. 22
