Question

5. 'Two complementary angles are in the ratio 2 : 3. Find the measure of each angle,​

Answer 1

Answer:

36,54

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angle = 90 degree

Let both the angles be given in ratio 2x and 3x

So, measure of each angle  =  2x + 3x = 90

                                                   5x = 90

                                                    x =90 / 5

                                                    x = 18

therefore, 2x = 2*18= 36 degree

                3x = 3*18= 54 degree

Answer 2

Answer :

• The measure of each angles are 36⁰ and 54⁰

Given :

• Two complementary angles are in the ratio 2 : 3

To find :

• The measure of each angle

Solution :

Given that ,

Two complementary angles are in the ratio 2 : 3

As we know that,

• Complementary angles = 90⁰

• Let the first ratio be 2x
• Let the second ratio be 3x

putting the value

》 2x + 3x = 90⁰

》 5x = 90⁰

》 x = 90/5

》 x = 18

Then ,

• 2x = 2(18) = 36
• 3x = 3(18) = 54

The measure of each angles are 36⁰ and 54⁰
