the ratio of two complementary angles is 3 to 7
Let x and (90°-x) represent the smaller and larger angle
x%2F%2890-x%29+=+3%2F7 ||Cross Multiplying to solve
3(90°-x) = 7x
270° = 10x
27° = x, the smaller. Larger of the complementary Angles is 63°
27°/63° = 3/7

Answer:
27° and 63° are the two complementary angles
Step-by-step explanation:
Two angles whose sum is 90
o
are said to be complementary.
Given two angles are in the ratio of 3:7
Let the two angles be 3x and 7x.
So, 3x+7x=90
o
⇒10x=90
o
⇒x=
10
90
⇒x=9
Therefore, the two angles are 3x=27
o
and 7x=63
