A triangle’s angle of 50 degrees is five-ninths from its other corner. Find the 3rd corner of the triangle.

Since the angle of a triangle, which has a degree measure of 50 °, is 5/9 of the other angle of the triangle, then this other angle is 9/5 times the first angle:

50 ° * 9/5 = 90 °.

The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180 °, we find the third angle:

180 ° – 50 ° – 90 ° = 40 °.

Answer: 40 °.
