Example Question #33 : Angle Geometry
If two angles are complementary, and one angle is measured radians, what is the other angle in radians?
If the set of angles are complementary, they must add up to radians, which is equivalent to 90 degrees.
Subtract radians from radians.
The answer is:
Example Question #33 : Complementary Angles
Which angle is complementary to 30 degrees?
Complementary angles must sum up to 90 degrees. In order to find the other angle, we must subtract the given angle from 90 degrees.
The answer is:
Example Question #464 : 2 Dimensional Geometry
Which of the following pairs of angles are complementary angles?
Which of the following pairs of angles are complementary angles?
Recall that complementary angles are angles which add up to 90 degrees.
In this case, all we have to do is see which pairs sum to 90, and that will be our answer:
So it must be the last one.
Example Question #34 : Complementary Angles
Right triangle has right angle and angle . What would be the measure of an angle which is complementary to ?
No calculation is actually required for this problem. is the right angle of , so and must comprise a complementary pair of angles. Since is complementary to , any angle complementary to must have measure equal to that of , which is .
Example Question #32 : Angle Geometry
The image is not to scale.
If the sum of two angles results in a complementary angle, what is the measure of the unknown angle?
With the provided image, we are asked to solve for the measure of the unknown angle.
First, we must understand some information before attempting to solve the problem. The problem provides the information that the two angles summed up result in a complimentary angle. This is another way to say that when we add the measures of the two angles, it will equal .
This becomes a problem where we solve for a missing variable now. We can call the unknown angle x. We would set this up in equation format accordingly:
Now, we can solve for x.
Therefore, the unknown angle is .

Example Question #41 : Complementary Angles
Which of the following angles forms a complementary angle pair with ?
Given that
Which of the following angles forms a complementary angle pair with ?
Given that
Complementary angles sum up to 90 degrees. Therefore, to find our answer, we simply need to do the following:
So, our answer is 33 degrees
Example Question #41 : Complementary Angles
Find the the measure of angle B if it is complement of angle A:
If two angles are complementary, that means the sum of their degrees of measure will add up to 90. In order to find the measure of angle B, subtract angle A from 90 like shown:
This gives us a final answer of 15 degrees for angle B.
Example Question #1431 : Ged Math
Find the the measure of angle B if it is complement of angle A:
If two angles are complementary, that means the sum of their degrees of measure will add up to 90. In order to find the measure of angle B, subtract angle A from 90 like shown:
This gives us a final answer of 63 degrees for angle B.
