Question

Out of a pair of complementary angles, one angle is 1⁄4 th of the other. What is measure
of both the angles?

Answer 1

Answer:

the first angle is 18 degree and other angle is 72 degree

Answer 2

Answer:

54 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one angle be x.  

So, other angle = 90° – x  

Thus, 2/3 × x = 90° – x  

→ 2x = 270° – 3x

→ 2x + 3x = 270°  

→ 5x = 270°  

→ x = 270°/5 = 54°

So, one angle = 54° and the other angle = 90° – 54°= 36°
