Answer:
n = 25°
Step-by-step explanation:
All interior angles of a triangle add up to 180°. We already know one of the angles is 90°, so we can build an equation:
90 + (n + 40) + n = 180.
Then we combine like-terms and subtract:
130 + 2n = 180,
2n = 50.
Then we divide by 2 to get our answer:
n = 25.
To double check, we insert 25 as our value:
90 + (40 + 25) + 25 = 180.
