Question

One of the acute angles in a right triangle has a measure of 36.6°. What is the measure of the other acute angle?

A. 145.4°
B. 34.6°
C. 55. 4°
D. 90°​

Answer 1

Triangles equal 180 degrees total
It’s a right triangle so one of the angles is 90 degrees and we know another angle is 36.6
So 90+36.6= 126.6
180-126.6= 53.4
So I’m assuming the correct answer is C since that’s the closet number to 53.4
