Answer: 20°

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

Angle 1 = 55°

Angle 2 = 105°

The sum of the three interior angles of a triangle is always 180°.

So:

180 = 55+105 + x

Where x is the missing angle.

Solving for x:

180-55-105 = x

20°=x

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
