Question

The ratio of two complementary angle is 1:5.Find the angles.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Complementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 90°

Given, the ratio of complementary angles is 1:5

Let one angle be x

Another angle be 5x

Since the angles are complementary

So, x + 5x = 90°

6x = 90°

x = 90°/6

x = 15°

Another angle = 5(15) = 75°

Therefore, the measure of each angle is 15° and 75°.

Answer 2

Answer:

let ratio be x

1x

5x

1x+5x=90

6x =90

x. =90/6

x=15
