Question

A right triangle has one angle that measures 44°. What is the measure of the other acute angle?

Answer 1

Given:-

• A right angle measures 90°
• Measure of other angle = 44°

To find:-

• Measure of 3rd Angle

Solution:-

`\underline{\dag{ \frak{\pink{ \: As \: we \: know \: that \ratio}}}}`

❍ Sum of all angles of Triangle is 180°

⠀⠀

Similarly -

As we are talking about right angle so, Obviously one of the angle will be 90°

⠀⠀

Let's do it by step by step:

`\begin{gathered}\::\implies\sf{90^\circ + 44^\circ\:+\:x\;=180^\circ}\\\\\\ :\implies\sf{ {134}^( \circ) } + x = {180}^( \circ)\\\\\\ :\implies\sf{x = {180}^( \circ) } - {134}^( \circ)\\\\\\ :\implies\sf{x = {46}^( \circ) }\end{gathered}`

⠀⠀

.°. Hence, Measure of other angle is 46°

Answer 2

46°

Explanation:

It is given that one of the angles measure 44°. In a right triangle, one of the angles is guaranteed to be 90°. A triangle's total angle measurement is 180°. Set the equation:

Answer = Total measurements - (one angle + right angle)

Answer = 180 - (90 + 44)

= 180 - 134

= 46

46° is your answer.
