In a triangle, the sum of all three angles is always 180 degrees. In a right triangle, one of the angles is 90 degrees.
Given that one angle is 36 degrees, we can find the measure of the third angle as follows:
1. Start with the total degrees in a triangle: 180 degrees.
2. Subtract the right angle: 180° - 90° = 90°.
3. Now subtract the given angle: 90° - 36° = 54°.
Therefore, the measure of the third angle in this triangle is **54 degrees**.
