Recalling Geometric Principles for Drafting

A drafting technician is training a new apprentice on how to calculate the dimensions of a custom right-triangular bracket. The blueprint specifies that one of the acute angles is 50∘{}50^{\circ} more than the smallest angle. When the apprentice reaches the 'Translate' step of the geometry problem-solving strategy to write an algebraic equation, what foundational geometric facts must they recall about the angles of the triangle?
