Answer: 30 degrees ---- Explanation: Let x be the angle. 4x=2(90-x) is the equation that says what you are asking. So we simplify and have 4x=180-2x 6x=180 x=30 Let's check 4x30=120 The complement of 30 is 60, and 2x60=120 so it works!

Half the supplement of an angle is 12 degreees less than twice the complement of the angle Find the measure of the angle?
40 degres
What is the number of degrees in an angle which is 36 degrees more than twice its complement?
72
The supplement of an angle is 60 degrees less than twice the supplement of the complement of the angle what is the measure of the complement?
180-x= 2(90+x) - 60 180-x=180+2x - 60 -x=-60 x=60 Are you in my honors geometry class? The algebra is wrong. the third line should read -3x=-60 x=20 therefore the complement is 70o This agrees with the answer in the back of the book.
If one of two complementary angles is twice the measure of the other one what is the measure of each angle?
1st angle = 30 degrees 2nd angle = 60 degrees
What is the measure of an angle if it is 36 less than twice the measure of its complement?
a + b = 90, ie a = 90 - b;a = 2b - 36 so 2b - 36 = 90 - b ie 3b = 126 so b = 42 and a = 48 (which is 36 less than 84)
The complement of an angle is twice the measure of the angle what is the measure of the complement?
The complement is 60 degrees.
Half the supplement of an angle is 12 degreees less than twice the complement of the angle Find the measure of the angle?
40 degres
If An angle is twice as large as its complement How large is the angle?
60 degrees.
How do you find the measure of angle A if the supplement of angle A is 20 degrees greater than twice the complement of angle A?
The supplement of A is 180 - A The complement of A is 90 - A So, 180 - A = 2*(90 - A) + 20 or 180 - A = 180 - 2A + 20 So A = 20 degrees
The angle of rotation is the measure of the angle formed by the lines?
the answer is twice. the angle of rotation is twice the measure
What would be an equation for the statement five times the complement of an angle less twice the angle's supplement is 40 degreesFind the measure of the supplement?
Suppose the supplement of the angle is x degrees. Then the angle is 180 - x degrees. Therefore the complement of the angle is 90 - (180 - x) degrees = x - 90 degrees. So 5*(x - 90) - 2*x = 40 Solve the above equation for x.
If the supplement of an angle os twenty more than twice its complement what is the angle?
The angle is 20 degrees
What is the measure of an angle if twice the measure of its supplement is 30 more than fivr times the measure of complement?
Angle is x degrees. Then 2(180 - x) = 5(90 - x) + 30 360 - 2x = 450 - 5x + 30 3x = 120 x = 40 Check: supplement is 140, 2 x 140 = 280 complement is 50, 5 x 50 = 250 difference is 30 as required. QED
If an angle has twice the measure of its complement what is the measure of the angle?
Complimentary angles are two angles that add up to 90o. It the sum of two angles is 90o, and one is twice as big as the other, then we can make up a little equation to solve for that larger angle (a). It might look like this: 90o = a + ( a / 2 ) As our larger angle (a) was said to be twice as large as our smaller angle, our smaller angle (a/2) is half as large as the larger angle. 90o = 3a / 2 180o = 3a a = 180o / 3 = 60o Our mystery angle is a 60o angle. The smaller one is 30o. The larger angle is twice the smaller, and they two sum to 90o. Our work checks.
