Question

Find the measure of the complement of an angle of measure 51°​

Answer 1

Answer:

39 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

We have to find the complement of the angle 51°​

What are complementary angles?

The angles which when added give a sum of 90°​ are called complementary angles.

For example: 50 + 40 = 90

Therefore, 50 will be the complement of 40 and vice-versa

Now, we will find the complement of 51°​

Let x be the complement of 51°​

x + 51 = 90

       x = 90 - 51

      x = 39°​

Therefore, 39°​ will be the complement of 51°​
