Answer:

J

Explanation:

The sum of all interior angles in a triangle is equal to 180°

So the other unknown angle in the triangle is 180 - (50+38) = 92°

And a straight line has angle 180° as well.

To find angle A, you must minus the unknown angle (now known which is 92°) from 180.

180 - 92 = 88°

A more simplified way is using the formula in the pic.

Exterior angle = sum of opposite interior angles

Angle A = 50+38 = 88

(which J is saying)
