To find the missing angle, we first add the two given acute angles:
(2x + 6) + (3x - 26) = 180
5x - 20 = 180
5x = 200
x = 40
Now we can find the measures of the missing angles:
First angle: 2(40) + 6 = 86 degrees
Second angle: 3(40) - 26 = 94 degrees
Therefore, the missing angles of the triangle are 86 degrees and 94 degrees.
A right triangle has acute angles measuring 2x+6 degrees and 3x−26 degrees. Use the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem to find the measures of the missing angles of the triangle.(4 points)

To find the missing angles of the right triangle, first, add the two given acute angles (2x + 6) and (3x - 26) to get 5x - 20 = 180. Solving for x gives x = 40. Substituting this back into the expressions gives the missing angles as 86 degrees and 94 degrees.
