For this case we have a triangle, in which we are given two angles and we must find the missing angle. We know that by definition, the sum of the internal angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.


37 + 79 + y = 180

Where "y" represents the measure of the missing angle.

Clearing "y" we have:


116 + y = 180\\y = 180-116\\y = 64

Thus, the missing angle is
y = 64degrees.

Answer:


y = 64 degrees
