Question

What is the measure of angle HJI? A. 38° B. 68C. 112° D. 158°

Answer 1

B. 68 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure, Angle HJK is a right angle.

The sum of the angle in a right angle is 90 degrees, thus:

`\begin{gathered} \angle\text{HJI}+\angle\text{IJK}=90\degree \\ \angle\text{HJI}+22\degree=90\degree \\ \angle\text{HJI}=90\degree-22\degree \\ \angle\text{HJI}=68\degree \end{gathered}`

The measure of angle HJI is 68 degrees.

The correct choice is B.
