Question

If two supplementary angles are in the ratio 7:8, find the complement of the smaller angle

Answer 1

Answer:

6°

Step-by-step explanation:

let the angles be 7x, 8x

so, 7x+8x=180

X=180/15

=12°

so the angles are 7x=7 .12

=84°

8x=8.12

=96

84 is the smallest angle so 84+x =90

x=90-84

=6°
