For this case we have a triangle, in which we are given two angles and we must find the missing angle. We know that by definition, the sum of the internal angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.
\(37 + 79 + y = 180\)
Where "y" represents the measure of the missing angle.
Clearing "y" we have:
\(116 + y = 180\\y = 180-116\\y = 64\)
Thus, the missing angle is\(y = 64\)degrees.
Answer:
\(y = 64\) degrees
