(image of a right angle with one angle labeled 29° and the other angle labeled a)
answer attempt 1 out of 2
a =
submit answer

Explanation:

Step1: Identify angle sum in right angle

A right angle is \(90^\circ\), so the two angles (\(29^\circ\) and \(a\)) add to \(90^\circ\).

Step2: Solve for \(a\)

Use the equation \(a + 29^\circ= 90^\circ\). Subtract \(29^\circ\) from both sides: \(a = 90^\circ - 29^\circ = 61^\circ\).

Answer:

\(61^\circ\)
