one angle of a right triangle measures 10°. what is the measure of the other acute angle?

Question

Accepted Answer

# Explanation:
## Step1: Recall the sum of angles in a triangle
The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is $180^{\circ}$. In a right - triangle, one angle is $90^{\circ}$.
## Step2: Let the unknown acute angle be $x$
We know that $90^{\circ}+10^{\circ}+x = 180^{\circ}$.
## Step3: Solve for $x$
$$
\begin{align*}
x&=180^{\circ}-(90^{\circ} + 10^{\circ})\
x&=180^{\circ}-100^{\circ}\
x& = 80^{\circ}
\end{align*}
$$

# Answer:
$80$
