Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows a right triangle. The right angle is at the left; the top angle is labeled a; and the angle on the right is labeled b. A line extending outward from angle a forms an exterior angle of 142 degrees.
Use the properties of exterior angles of triangles to find angle b

The exterior angle at vertex a equals the sum of the two remote interior angles: 142° = 90° + b.
So b = 142° − 90° = 52°.
So b = 142° − 90° = 52°.
