The ratio of the complements of two angle is 3:5.
Equation:
3x+5x = 90
8x = 90
x = 45/4
3x = 3(45/4) = 33.75
5x = 5(45/4) = 56.25
=======================
The ratio of the supplements of the same two angles is 6:7. What are the two angles?
Eqiation:
6x + 7x = 180
13x = 180
x = 180/13
6x = 6(180/13)= 83.08
8x = 7(180/13 = 96.92
==========================
Comment:: I doubt your problems are talking
about "the same two angles".
