Let the complement angle be x
so the other angle is 1/5x
Since both the angles are complementary:
x + 1/5x = 90
(5x + x)/5= 90
6x = 90*5
6x = 450
x= 450/6
x= 75°
other angle = 1/5*75= 15°
Therefore the angles are 75° and 15°
so the other angle is 1/5x
Since both the angles are complementary:
x + 1/5x = 90
(5x + x)/5= 90
6x = 90*5
6x = 450
x= 450/6
x= 75°
other angle = 1/5*75= 15°
Therefore the angles are 75° and 15°
