Question

One angle of a right triangle measures 31° what is the measure of the other angle

Answer 1

59°

Explanation:

A triangle adds up to 180°. A right triangle has a 90° angle.

1. Set up the equation

90 + 31 + x = 180

2. Simplify

121 + x = 180

3. Solve for x by subtracting 121 from both sides

x = 59
