Lines a and b intersect do that the measure angle 1 is 85°. If angle 2 is complement to angle 1, what's the measure for angle 2?

if the angles are complementary, then the sum of the angles is 90°


\begin{gathered} 85+m\angle2=90 \\ m\angle2=90-85=5 \end{gathered}

so the measure of the angle 2 is 5°
