The angles formed by one congruent side adjacent to the side not congrent to the first side
Exterior and interior angles at the vertex of a triangle add up to 180 degrees
If your "53" is in degrees, then the vertex angle is 74 degrees.
The sum of the angles around a vertex point in a plane will always be 360o. Picture a bicycle wheel with all its spokes radiating out from the hub. Now pick two spokes to form a vertex. Find the angle of your vertex, and then subtract it from 360o. As there are 360o in a circle, and your figure (the vertex) is a slice of the circle, its angle plus all the rest of the arc about the vertex will sum to 360o. If you've discovered the angle of your vertex, you cannot help but find the sum of the rest of the angles (if there are more than one) around your vertex.
That would be a right angle: The measure of complementary angles adds up to 90 degrees. Adjacent angles are angles that share one common side and one common vertex, but no common interior points (the angles don't overlap). The non-common sides of two adjacent angles are the two "outside" sides (the unshared sides). Two adjacent and complementary angles would form a right angle split by a ray/line, and not necessarily bisected (perfectly divided in half).
