Question

x° and (x+2)° are complementary angles, then find the angle.​

Answer 1

Answer:

44 and 46

Step-by-step explanation:

x and x + 2 are complementary angles which means (x) + (x+2) = 90

2x + 2 = 90

2x = 88

x = 44

Therefore the angles are 44 and 46.

Answer 2

Answer:

$\huge\mathtt{{\colorbox{teal}{Question}}}$

Q. x° and (x+2)° are complementary angles, then find the angle.

$\bf\underline{\underline{solution}}$

$\bf\underline{\underline{Given}}$

x° and (x+2)° are complementary angles

so , as we know that sum of complementary angles measures 90°

according to the Question the angles are x° and (x+2)°

so , x° + (x+2)° will be equal to 90°

$\bf\underline{\underline{equation:}}$

= x° + (x+2)° = 90°

= 2x + 2° = 90°

[ transpose +2° to the RHS so, it will become "-2"]

= 2x° = 90°-2°

= 2x° = 48°

= x = 48/2

= x = 24°

so, the angles are x= 24° and (x+2)° = 24°+2°= 26°

more to know ↓

• sum of 2 complementary angles are always measures 90°

• sum of 2 complementary angles measures 180° which also referred as supplementary angle

• sum of 2 angles which measures 180° is called supplementary pairs
