If \( a \) and \( b \) are complementary angles, then the sum of their measures is \( 90^\circ \). Given that \( a \) measures \( 22^\circ \), we can determine the measure of \( b \) using the following equation:
\[
a + b = 90^\circ
\]
Substituting the value of \( a \):
\[
22^\circ + b = 90^\circ
\]
To find \( b \), subtract \( 22^\circ \) from both sides:
\[
b = 90^\circ - 22^\circ
\]
Calculating this gives:
\[
b = 68^\circ
\]
So, the measure of angle \( b \) is \( 68^\circ \).
\[
a + b = 90^\circ
\]
Substituting the value of \( a \):
\[
22^\circ + b = 90^\circ
\]
To find \( b \), subtract \( 22^\circ \) from both sides:
\[
b = 90^\circ - 22^\circ
\]
Calculating this gives:
\[
b = 68^\circ
\]
So, the measure of angle \( b \) is \( 68^\circ \).
