1. The problem is to find the measure of the missing angle in a triangle where the other two angles are given as 76° and 56°.
2. The formula used is the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem, which states that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180°.
3. Using the formula:
$$\text{Sum of angles} = 180^\circ$$
Let the missing angle be $x$.
4. Set up the equation:
$$76^\circ + 56^\circ + x = 180^\circ$$
5. Add the known angles:
$$132^\circ + x = 180^\circ$$
6. Solve for $x$ by subtracting 132° from both sides:
$$x = 180^\circ - 132^\circ$$
7. Calculate the difference:
$$x = 48^\circ$$
8. Therefore, the measure of the missing angle is $48^\circ$.
