In a right triangle the measure of one acute angle is 8 times the measure of another angle. what is the measure in degrees of the smallest angle in the triangle

a right triangle the measure, so right angle = 90

let x = other acute angle

one acute angle is 8 times the measure of another angle = 8x

x+8x+90=180

9x=90

x = 10

answer:

measure in degrees of the smallest angle in the triangle = 10
