Question

An angle is equal to five times its complement determine the measure

Answer 1

let the smaller angle be x

the other angle will be 5x

sum of two angles is 90°

therefore x + 5x = 90

6x = 90

x = 90/6

x = 15

the angles are x & 5x

x = 15° and 5x = 75°

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the angle be x. So, the complement angle =90-x. According to question x=5(90-x) x=450-5x. 6x=450. x=75
