We will have the following:

First, we recall that a right triangle has a 90° angle.

We are also given that one of the other angles is 24°.

We also recall that the sum of all internal angles of a triangle add to 180°, so the following is true:


90+24+\theta=180\Rightarrow\theta=66

So, the measure of the missing angle is 66°.
