Clara Forbes · Answer 1

because all triangles angles add up to equal 180, and a right triangle has a 90 degree angle. you subtract 90 and 15 from 180 and that number will be the size of the remaining angle

180-90=90

90-15 = 75

the answer is B) 75degrees

Kaya Benson · Answer 2

Angles add up to 180

if right triangle, one angle is 90

another is 15 as given therefor

180=15+90+x

180=105+x

subtract 105

75=x

angle is 75 degrees
