The correct answer is 58 degrees. In geometry, a right angle is always ninety degrees (90 °). Since we know one side of the right angle, it’s much easier to find the missing parts. All we have to do is subtract 32 from 90 to find the degree for b Reminder Sum of angles on a right angle = 90 °. 90 = 32 + b, b = 90 -32,b = 58. Therefore angle b is 58 °

In math, it is common to measure angles. One way to do this is to use some of the math facts that are known about angles. A right corner is always going to be ninety degrees. Therefore, if you know the measurement of one aspect within a right angle, then you should know the other angle because it would be that measurement subtracted from ninety degrees.

So, if there is a right angle and it is split into two unequal angles, then you may be able to determine its measurement since one angle is measured. The size of one aspect is thirty-two degrees. Therefore, ninety minus thirty-two is fifty-eight degrees. So, angle b is fifty-eight degrees. A straight line is one hundred eighty degrees.
