90 degrees

Explanation:

![https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_angle](useruploads.socratic.org)

Whenever you see an angle drawn like this with a box in the corner, it is a right angle. In other words, it measures 90 degrees.

If you put four 90 degree angles together, it would equal 360 degrees. So, a right angle is #1/4# 360. #360xx1/4=90#
