Question

two complementry angles are in ratio 1:5 . find the measures of the angles..​

Answer 1

Answer:

one of the angles is in the ratio of 1:5 with the other angle. let x be that angle. multiply both sides of equation by (5/6) to get: y = (5/6) * 90 = 75 degrees.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let the ratio of the given angles be x and 5x

as we know sum of complementary angles =90°

x+5x=90

6x=90

x=15

required angles are 1×15=15° and 5×15=75°
