b= 81 degrees


Step-by-step explanation:

A straight line is 180 degrees.

180 - 99 = 81

All the angles combined should be equal to 360, forming a circle.

In order to find angle b, we have to know what supplementary angles.

Supplementary angles are two angles that add up to 180°, or in other words, a straight line.

Angle b and the 99 degree angle are supplementary due to them creating a straight line when combined, so they add up to 180°.

To find angle b, subtract 99 degrees from 180.

180 - 99 = 81

Angle b is equal to 81 degrees.
