The ratio of the measures of two complementary angles is 1:2. What is the measure of the larger angle? (hint: let x and 2x represent the angle measures)
A: 30 degrees B: 18 degrees C: 20 degrees D: 36 degrees Answer by cleomenius(959) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! I do not believe the problem is stated correctly.
x + 2x = 90 degrees.
3x = 90
x = 30, the smaller angle.
2x = 60 degrees, the larger angle.
I don't see where any of the choices could be the larger angle.
