Question

the difference between an angel and its complement is 10° find measure of larger angel​

Answer 1

Answer :

• Larger angle is 50⁰

Given :

• The difference between an angle and its complement is 10⁰

To find :

• Larger angle

Solution :

• Let the larger angle be x

As we know that,

• Complementary angle = 90⁰ then

• Let the complement angle be 90⁰ - x

And also Given that,

• The difference between an angle and its complement angle is 10⁰ then,

》x - (90 - x) = 10

》x - 90 + x = 10

》2x = 90 + 10

》2x = 100

》x = 100/2

》x = 50⁰

Hence , Larger angle is 50⁰
