An illustration shows two non-adjacent angles, with angle J K L measuring 34 degrees and angle G H I measuring x degrees. Ray K L is vertical, and ray H I is horizontal.
If ∠LKJ and ∠GHI are complementary angles, what is the angle measure of ∠GHI ?

If angles ∠LKJ and ∠GHI are complementary, it means that their measures add up to 90 degrees. Therefore, if ∠LKJ measures 34 degrees, the measure of ∠GHI would be 90 - 34 = 56 degrees. So the answer is 56°.
