Question 229211: Please explain the steps this confuses me. I understand what supplementary means and complementary whats confusing me is how to get an equation out of this:
angle AFB is 2 times its supplement.
Find angle A's complement.
Answer by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
When two angles are complimentary, they add up to 90
For example, an angle of 35 degrees, it's complement is: 90-35 = 55 degrees
just like
When two angles are supplementary, they add up to 180
The supplement of 35 degrees, 180 - 35 = 145 degrees
:
Angle AFB is 2 times its supplement.
:
Let angle AFB = x
x = 2(180 - x)
x = 360 - 2x
x + 2x = 360
3x = 360
x = 360/3
x = 120 degrees is angle AFB
:
Find angle A's complement. I am not sure what they mean by "angle A" here!
Anyway: 90 - A = Angle A's complement
