Solution
Let p : An angle is a right angle.
q : An angle is of measure 90°.
The given statement is p ↔ q.
Its negation is ~(p ↔ q) ≡ (p ∧ ~ q) ∨ (q ∧ ~ p)
∴ The negation of the given statement is ‘An angle is a right angle and it is not of measure 90° or an angle is of measure 90° and it is not a right angle.’
