If the compliment of an angle is equal to the supplement of Thrice of itself, find the measure of the angle?
Question:
If the compliment of an angle is equal to the supplement of Thrice of itself, find the measure of the angle?
Solution:
Let the angle measured be 'x' say.
Its complementary angle is (90 - x) and
Its supplementary angle is (180 - 3x)
Given that, Supplementary of 4 times the angle = (180 - 3x)
According to the given information;
(90 - x) = (180 - 3x)
3x - x = 180 - 90
2x = 90
x = 90/2
x = 45
Therefore, the measured angle x = (45)°
