In a right triangle, one angle is always 90°. The sum of all angles in a triangle is 180°. Therefore, you can find the third angle by subtracting the given angles from 180°:

  1. Start with the known angles: 90° (right angle) and 65°.
  2. Calculate the third angle:

\[ \text{Third angle} = 180° - 90° - 65° \] \[ \text{Third angle} = 180° - 155° \] \[ \text{Third angle} = 25° \]

So, the third angle in the triangle is 25°.
