Question

an angle is equal to 5 times its complement. find the measure of the angle

Answer 1

let one angle be X . then the other will be 5 X
complementary angles add up to 90°
( now we will fine X)
X +5X =90°
6x = 90°
X = 15°
5x = 5×15
= 75°

75° is the answer

Answer 2

Hey MATE!

Let the angle be x°

Therefore, other angle is 5x°

We know now,

x + 5x = 90

6x = 90

x = 15°

Therefor other angle is 15 (5) = 75°


Hope it helps
