Answer:

50 degrees

Explanation:

All three angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees. If you know the measure of two angles, add them together and subtract the sum from 180.

45+85=130. Then, subtract 130 from the total, or 180. 180-130=50. The measure of the third angle of the triangle is 50 degrees.
