To find the measure of the adjacent angle formed by two intersecting lines when one angle is 112 degrees, we can use the fact that adjacent angles are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180 degrees.

Let x be the measure of the adjacent angle.

Therefore, the equation we can set up is:

x + 112 = 180

Now, we can solve for x by subtracting 112 from both sides:

x = 180 - 112
x = 68

Therefore, the measure of the adjacent angle is 68 degrees.
