You can solve by substituting (x) for the unknown angle and (x + 40) for the angle plus 40 degrees and set the equation as: x + (x + 40) = 90 (then simplify) 2x + 40 = 90 (then isolate the known from unknown by subtracting 40 from each side of the equation) 2x = 50 (divide both sides by 2 to solve for x) x (the unknown angle) = 25 degrees now you can substitute the value of the angles to prove the equation.

The complement of an angle is 18 degrees what is the measure of the angle?
Complementary angles add to 90 degrees. So complement of 18 deg is 72 deg.
What is the measure of the complement of a 85 degrees angle?
5 degrees angle, because the sum of two complementary angles is 90 degrees.
The measure of the complement to a 35 angle is?
A pair of angles are complementary if their sum is 90 degrees. Therefore, the complement to a 35 degree angle measures 90 - 35 = 55 degrees. This can be effectively displayed when placing both angles so that they form a right angle.
What is the measure of a complement of an angle of 79 degrees?
The definition of complementary is two angles together that form a right angle or 90 degrees. The way to find the complement of an angle is to subtract that angle from 90 degrees. In this case 90 subtracted by 79 equals 11. The complement of a 79 degree angle is an 11 degree angle.
Find the complement of 60 degrees?
Since the sum of the two complement angles is 90⁰ , then the complement of a 60⁰ angle is a 30⁰ angle.
The measure of angle x is 73.5 degreeswhat is the measure of the angles complement in degrees?
16.5 degrees
What is the complement of the complement of an angle?
It is 9 degrees because complementary angles add up to 90 degrees
The complement of an angle is 18 degrees what is the measure of the angle?
Complementary angles add to 90 degrees. So complement of 18 deg is 72 deg.
What is the measure of the complement of a 85 degrees angle?
5 degrees angle, because the sum of two complementary angles is 90 degrees.
If an angle has a measure of 41 what is the measure of its complement?
An angle and its complement add to 90 degrees. Hence an angle of 41 degrees has 49 degrees as its complement.
Can an angle have the measure as its complement?
Assuming two angles are complementary, an angle can have the same measure as it's complement when it measures 45 degrees. BECAUSE 45 +45 =90!!
The complement of an angle is twice the measure of the angle what is the measure of the complement?
The complement is 60 degrees.
Find the measure of the complement of an angle whose measure is 62?
28 degrees. Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees
What is the complement of an angle whose measure 85?
Complementary angles sum to give 90 degrees. Therefore the complement to an 85 degree angle is a 5 degree angle.
The measure of the complement to a 35 angle is?
A pair of angles are complementary if their sum is 90 degrees. Therefore, the complement to a 35 degree angle measures 90 - 35 = 55 degrees. This can be effectively displayed when placing both angles so that they form a right angle.
If FBG 65o what is the measure of its complement EBF?
Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees. If one angle is 65 degrees, its complement is 90 - 65 = 25 degrees.
What is the measure of a complement of an angle of 79 degrees?
The definition of complementary is two angles together that form a right angle or 90 degrees. The way to find the complement of an angle is to subtract that angle from 90 degrees. In this case 90 subtracted by 79 equals 11. The complement of a 79 degree angle is an 11 degree angle.
