You can put this solution on YOUR website! Twice the measure of angle R is one-half the measure of angle S. If R and S are complimentary angles, what is the measure of angle R?
----> _______4R = S ------ eq (i)
R + S = 90 ----- eq (ii)
R + 4R = 90 ---- Substituting 4R for S in eq (ii)
5R = 90
Measure of ∠R is: , or
