Solution

Use the property for the sum of interior angles of a triangle:
The property states that sum of interior angles of a triangle is $180$ degrees.
Let the unknown angle be $x$ .
As a right triangle with measure of one angle $90$ degrees is given.
Hence,
$\begin{array}{rcl} 90 + x + 56 & = & 180 \\ \Rightarrow & 146 + x = 180 \\ \Rightarrow & x = 34 \end{array}$
Hence, The measure of missing angle is $34$ degrees.
