In a right triangle, all the angle measurements together add up to be 180 degrees. And since it is a right triangle, one of the three angles is 90 degrees so if you are given one of the angles other than the right angle's measurements, you can find the angle measurements.
Here's an example:
There is a right triangle. One angle measures to be 45 degrees. What is the missing angle measure?
Well we know that one angle must be 90 degrees and the other (as we were told) is 45 degrees. 90+45=135 and we know that a right triangle=180 degrees total and 180-135= 45. The missing angle is equal to 45 degrees!
hope this makes sense and it helped.

If one acute angle on a right triangle is forty five degrees what is the measure of the other acute angle in the triangle?
since it is a right triangle there is one 90 degree angle and another of the angles is 45 degrees. there is 180 degrees in a triangle so the missing angle is 45 degrees.
When one angle in a triangle is right angle it is called as?
A right angle triangle
Does a right angle triangle have 90 degree angle?
Yes. That is why it is called a right angle triangle!Yes. That is why it is called a right angle triangle!Yes. That is why it is called a right angle triangle!Yes. That is why it is called a right angle triangle!
How do you find the length to a missing side of a right triangle?
Pythagorean Theorem: a2 + b2= c2 where c is the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Hypotenuse is the side of a right triangle opposite to the right angle.
What is the missing angle if an angle measures 30 degrees 90 degrees what is the other angle?
If it's a right angle triangle then the the third angle is 60 degrees.
