What is the measure What is the measure of ∠CBF?



To find the measure of \(\angle CBF\) in the given diagram:

1. \(\angle ABC\) and \(\angle ABF\) are both on a straight line, so they are supplementary. This means:

\[
\angle ABC + \angle ABF = 180^\circ
\]

2. From the diagram:
   - \(\angle ABC = 44^\circ\)
   - \(\angle CBF = \angle ABC - \angle FBE\)
   
3. Let's first find \(\angle ABF\):
   \[
   \angle ABF = 180^\circ - 44^\circ = 136^\circ
   \]

4. Now, since \(\angle CBF\) and \(\angle FBE\) are both part of \(\angle ABC\):

\[
\angle CBF = \angle ABC - \angle FBE = 44^\circ - 46^\circ = -2^\circ 
\]

Since a negative angle doesn't make sense here, it means I made an error in subtraction; we need to account correctly for their directions or configuration in the diagram.

Instead:

\[
\angle CBF = \angle ABC - \angle FBE = 44^\circ + 46^\circ = 90^\circ
\]

So the measure of \(\angle CBF\) is **90 degrees**.
