This question involves the concept of supplementary angles.

 

Key Concept Explanation

Supplementary angles are two angles whose sum is 180°. When two angles are adjacent and form a straight line, they are supplementary.

 

Step-by-Step Solution

1. Let the missing angle be .

2. We know that the given angle is 24°.

3. Since the two angles form a straight line (a linear pair), we use the equation .

4. To find , we subtract 24° from both sides of the equation: .
