The angle measures 53 degrees What is the measure of its compliment?
37o
Angles X and Y are supplementary If the measure of angle X equals 2x plus 4 and the measure of angle Y equals 4x plus 20 then what is the measure of each angle and why?
X = 180 - Y so 180 - Y = 2x + 4 and Y = 4x + 20 so 180 - 4x - 20 = 2x + 4 therefore 6x = 156 so x = 26 making Angle X = 56o and Angle Y = 124o
In this parallelogram the measure of angle b is twice the measure of angle a What is the measure of angle a?
The adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary. This means that angle A + angle B = 180 deg.Since angle B = 2*angle A, then angle A + 2*angle A = 180 deg ie 3*angle A = 180 deg so that angle A = 60 deg.
Find the measure of the complement of an angle whose measure is 62?
28 degrees. Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees
The middle angle in a triangle measures 1 degree more than 2 times the smallest angle and 53 degrees less than the largest angle Find the measure of angles of the triangle?
middle angle= 51 degrees smallest angle= 25 degrees largest angle= 104 degrees x=25 ; y=104 I can't really show you how I got the answer but I suggest you draw a picture and then it's much easier to figure out. We don't need a figure to compute the measure of the angles, since we know that the sum of the measure of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. Let x be the smallest angle, so the middle angle is 1 + 2x, and the larger angle is 53 + 1 + 2x or 54 + 2x. Then we have: x + (1 + 2x) + (54 + 2x) = 180 5x + 55 = 180 5x + 55 - 55 = 180 - 55 5x = 125 5x ÷ 5 = 125 ÷ 5 x = 25 1 + 2x = 1 + 2(25) = 51 54 + 2x = 54 + 2(25) = 104
