I should have asked if this is a triangle. Apparently it is.
180 - (28 + 97) = ?

To find the measure of the missing angle, we need to use the fact that the sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees.
Let's label the missing angle as "x".
In this case, we have two given angles: angle a = 28 degrees and angle b = 97 degrees.
To find the missing angle x, we can use the equation:
x + a + b = 180
Substituting the given values:
x + 28 + 97 = 180
Combine like terms:
x + 125 = 180
Next, we solve for x by subtracting 125 from both sides of the equation:
x = 180 - 125
x = 55
Therefore, the measure of the missing angle is 55 degrees.
