Algebra.Com's Answer #404666 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! An angle’s measure is 3 times the measure of its complement. Find the measure of the angle and the measure of its complement. \n" ); document.write( "--------------------- \n" ); document.write( "Let the angle be \"x\". \n" ); document.write( "Then the complement is \"90-x\" \n" ); document.write( "--------- \n" ); document.write( "Equation: \n" ); document.write( "angle = 3*complement \n" ); document.write( "------------------- \n" ); document.write( "x = 3(90-x) \n" ); document.write( "x = 270-3x \n" ); document.write( "4x = 270 \n" ); document.write( "x = 67.5 degrees (the angle) \n" ); document.write( "90-x = 22.5 degrees (the complement) \n" ); document.write( "=========================== \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "================= \n" ); document.write( " |
