    The size of the angle formed at the top of the sail is 35.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We know that the sum of all angles inside a triangle must be 180. This is a rule.

    So we know that a right triangle is called like that because one angle is a 90-degree angle.

    Then we have that:

    180 = right angle + lower edge angle + angle top of the sail

    180 = 90 + 55 + angle top of the sail

    Solving for 'angle top of the sail' we have:

    angle top of the sail = 180 - 90 - 55 = 35

    The size of the angle formed at the top of the sail is 35.
