Hope it helps you to understand it easily...................
Step-by-step explanation:
/-Let, the measure of one of the angle be X.
/-Then, the other angle will be =2/3×X=2/3X
/- We know that ,the sum of two complementary angles is 90°...........
According to the question............
or,2/3X+X=90°
or,2/3X+(X×3/3)=90°(making the denominators equal for addition)
or,2/3X+3/3X=90°
or,5/3X=90°
or,X=90×3/5
or,X=270/5
or,X=54(Answer)
Hence,The measure of one angle=X=54°
Now,The measure of another angle=2/3X
=2/3×54
=36°
Hence,the measure of the angles are 54° and 36°.
