To measure 55 degrees, you can use a tool called a protractor, which is specifically designed for measuring angles. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to measure 55 degrees using a protractor:

1. Place the protractor flat on the surface, ensuring that the center point (marked with a hole) aligns with the vertex of the angle you want to measure.

2. Look for the zero degree mark on the base of the protractor and make sure it aligns with one of the angle's sides.

3. Gradually rotate the protractor until the side opposite the zero degree mark (usually marked in a different color) is aligned with the other side of the angle. The degree markings on the protractor should increase as you rotate.

4. Locate the degree marking that corresponds to 55 degrees on the inner or outer degrees scale of the protractor. This will be the point where the second side of the angle intersects the degree scale.

5. Read the measurement at that point. If the second side of the angle aligns with a degree marking on the outer scale, the angle measures 55 degrees. If it aligns with a degree marking on the inner scale, then the angle is 180 - 55 = 125 degrees (since the protractor measures from 0 to 180 degrees only).

By following these steps, you can accurately measure 55 degrees using a protractor.
