Question

An angle is greater than 45, its complement is
a) less than 45° b) greater than 45° c) equal to 45°
Which of the following is correct? Justify your answer with the help of an
example.

Answer 1

Answer:

A) less than 45degree

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles are those whose sum is 90degress...

Let angle x be the 50(angle greater than 45degrees)(just for example)

Let the second angle be y

Thus,

x + y = 90

50 + y = 90

y = 90-50

y=40

This clearly implies that the second angle is smaller than 45degress
