Question

a right triangle has base angles that measure 35 degrees and X degrees write an equation that can be used to find the value of x the measure of the third angle in the right triangle in degrees ?.

Answer 1

We have the following:

We must bear in mind that a triangle the sum of all its angles must measure 180.

we know two, the right angle which is 90° and the other which is 35°, therefore

$\begin{gathered} 180=x+90+35 \\ x=180-90-35 \\ x=55 \end{gathered}$

The third angle measure 55°
