Two angles join to form a right angle. The measure of one of the angles is 64 degrees. What is the measure of the other angle?
64 + x = 90

To find the measure of the other angle, we need to know that a right angle is 90 degrees.
Since the two angles join to form a right angle, their measures add up to 90 degrees.
Let's denote the measure of the other angle as x.
We can write an equation based on this information:
x + 64 = 90
To find the value of x, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation.
First, subtract 64 from both sides:
x = 90 - 64
x = 26
Therefore, the measure of the other angle is 26 degrees.
