In the triangle one is 90° angle, and the same another angle of 40° in the same direction is also a 40° angle because it is placed on the same line.

So, the other angle is θ.
So, as we know the hole angle of a triangle is 180°.

Therefore, solution,
40° + θ +90° = 180°.
Or, θ + 90° = 180° - 40°.
Or, θ + 90° = 140°.
Or, θ= 140° - 90°.
Or, θ = 50°.

So, the angle θ is 50°.

Thanking you.

Okay I understanding that question but I need more explain.

Total Angle 1 Triangle = 180.
Know One Angle 40.
So 40 + 90 + X = 180.
X = 180 - 90 + 40.
X = 180 - 130.
X = 50.

In 1st figure:

The two lines are parallel hence it is 40.
Since it is a straight line it makes 180.

Hence 180-40 = 140.
Theta = 140-90 = 50.

Same in the second and third figure.

From fig 2:

90+40+x = 180.

130+x = 180.

x = 50.

In 2nd fig.

One angle is 90degree.

One angle is alternate which is 40 degree.

So total is 180 on a line then.

90+40+x=180.

X=180-130.

X=50.

IN fig1 consider triangle ABC the angle A was 40 B was 90 then C WAS 50 now we draw perpendicular line to B 90 - 50=40 incliantion line angle 40 so 90 -40=50=theata.

In third figure, if you just remove the 40 degree line (only imagination)you can see right angle triangle, so that 90-40=50 degree. As per the rules is 50 degree

In first figure, angle b/w two line is 90 then

40+90+x=180.

X=50.
