Answer:

45 degrees.

Explanation:

All of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

Knowing that we subtract 90 degrees, the right angle from 180 degrees.

180-90=90

Since both the angles are equal,

90/2=45

Hope this helps :)

Have a great day!

Answer: Hi!

Since this is a right triangle, we already know that one angle is 90 degrees. Since the angles of a triangle all add up to 180 degrees, and the two unknown angles will be equal, all we have to do is subtract 90 from 180 and then divide the difference by 2!

180 - 90 = 90

90 รท 2 = 45

The two missing angles are each 45 degrees.

(x = 45 and y = 45)

Make sure to put the degrees sign after your answers!

Hope this helps!
