Example Question #23 : Angle Geometry
Two angles are complementary. If the first angle is , what is the value of the second angle?
Two angles are complementary if they add up to . So, we can write it as the formula:
Now, we know one angle is . So, we can substitute and solve for the other angle. So, we get
Therefore, the other angle is .
Example Question #1421 : Ged Math
What angle is complementary to 80 degrees?
Complementary angles must add up to 90 degrees.
To find the other angle, we must subtract 80 from 90 degrees.
The answer is:
Example Question #26 : Complementary Angles
Suppose two angles are complementary. If one angle measurement is radians, what must be the other angle?
Complementary angles sum up to 90 degrees, or radians.
Subtract radians from radians.
The answer is:
Example Question #1422 : Ged Math
Suppose two angles are complementary. If one angle measurement is 52 degrees, what is the other angle?
Complementary angles sum up to 90 degrees.
Subtract the known angle from 90.
The answer is:
Example Question #1423 : Ged Math
Suppose two angles are complementary. What is the value of the other angle if a known angle is 43 degrees?
Complementary angles must add up to 90 degrees.
Subtract the known angle from 90.
The answer is:
Example Question #31 : Complementary Angles
Use the following angles to answer the question:
If these two angles are complementary, find the value of x.
Two angles are complementary if they add up to . So, we can use the formula
where x and y are the angles.
So, given the angles
we can see one angle is . So, we can substitute and solve for x. We get
Example Question #31 : Angle Geometry
If angle measure is degrees, what is the other angle if both angles are complementary?
Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees.
To determine the other angle, subtract 81 from 90.
The answer is:
Example Question #1426 : Ged Math
If two angles are complementary, and one angle is , what is the value of the other angle?
Two angles are complementary if they add up to . We can use the formula:
where x and y are the angles.
Now, we know one angle is . So, we will substitute and solve for the other angle. We get
Example Question #32 : Complementary Angles
If an angle is measured 35 degrees, what is the other angle if both angles are complementary?
Complementary angles sum up to 90 degrees.
To find the other angle, subtract the known angle from 90 degrees.
The answer is:
Example Question #32 : Complementary Angles
Suppose two angles are complementary. What must be if the angles are and degrees?
The sum of both angles must add up to 90 degrees.
Solve for the variable.
Add 5 on both sides.
Divide by 10 on both sides.
Simplify the fraction.
The answer is:
