Final answer:

To calculate the measure of an angle of a triangle when the necessary information is provided, subtract the sum of the known angles from 180 degrees.


Step-by-step explanation:

I am confident in my ability to calculate the measure of an angle of a triangle when the necessary information is provided. To do so, you can use the fact that the sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees. If you know the measures of two angles in the triangle, you can subtract their sum from 180 to find the measure of the third angle.

For example, if one angle measures 60 degrees and another angle measures 40 degrees, you can find the measure of the third angle by subtracting 60 and 40 from 180: 180 - 60 - 40 = 80 degrees.

By applying this principle, you can calculate the measure of any angle in a triangle when the necessary information is provided.
