Question

If two angles are in the ratio 1:5, find them.

Answer 1

Answer:

Two complementary angles are in the ratio = 1 : 5

Let these angles be x and 5x

∴ x + 5x = 90°

⇒ 6x = 90°

⇒ x = 90°/6 = 15°

∴ Angles will be 15° and 15° × 5 = 75°

Answer 2

Answer:

two angles are in the ratio 1:5

1st angle is 1×15=15

2nd angle is 5×15=75

x+5x=90

6x=90

x=15.
