Angle and its complement have a sum of 90 degrees: A+C = 90 Angle plus five times its complement is 298 degrees: A+5C = 298 Subtract first equation from the second: 4C = 208 C = 52 So, the complement is 52 degrees and the angle is 38 degrees

What is the measure of the third angle of a triangle if one angle measures 50 degrees and the other measure 85?

To find the measure of the third angle of a triangle, you can use the fact that the sum of all three angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees. So, if one angle measures 50 degrees and the other measures 85 degrees, you can subtract their sum from 180 to find the measure of the third angle. Therefore, the third angle would measure 180 - 50 - 85 = 45 degrees.


What is the measure of each angle of a regular polygon with 7 sides?

A regular polygon has sides of equal length, as well as interior angles of equal measure. But for any regular polygon, the sum of the measures of the exterior angles is 360 degrees. You can use this information to find out the measure of an interior angle, because the sum of the measures of each interior/exterior pair of angles is always 180 degrees. So to find the answer to this problem, divide 360 by 7. Each exterior angle is about 51.4 degrees. Subtract that number from 180. Each interior angle is about 128.6 degrees.


Two of the angles of a parallelogram each measure 40 degrees what are the measures of the other two angles?

In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal. Since two angles measure 40 degrees each, the opposite angles are also 40 degrees. Therefore, the measures of the other two angles in the parallelogram are also 40 degrees each.


An angle and its complement are congruent sometimes always or never?

Sometimes. An angle's compliment is simply what other angle would it take to add up to 90 degrees. If the starting angle was 45 degrees, then its compliment would also be 45 degrees.


What is the measure of the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle if one of its base angles measures 42?

If you are dealing with an isosceles triangle, if one of the base angles measures 42 degrees then the other base angle measures 42 degrees. (By definitioin an isosceles triangle has at least 2 equal sides and the angle opposite those sides with be equal.) If you add up the degrees in each angle within a triangle, it will always equal 180 degrees. Knowing all this you can set up a formula: Angle 1 + Angle 2 + Angle 3 = 180 42 + 42 + Angle 3 = 180 Angle 3 = 96 degrees

Find the measure of the complement of 25 degrees?

The complement to 25 degrees would be 65 because 25 + 65 = 90. Complementary angles are always equal to 90 degrees, no more, no less.


If the measures of an angle and its complement are in the ratio 1 to 2 what is the measure of the complement?

60 degrees. An angle and its complement always add up to 90 degrees. Because the ratio is 1:2, you know that there are three parts total (add the two sides of the ratio to get the total number of parts). Therefore, you can restate the ratio as 1/3 to 2/3. 2/3 of 90 is 60. So, the angle of the complement is 60 degrees.


If an angle measures over 90 degrees what is its complement?

obtuse angle * * * * * The complement of an angle greater than 90 degrees is not an obtuse angle! It would be a negative angle, whose measure would be 90 minus the angle whose complement you require. This would only make sense if the direction in which the angles were measured were fixed. For example bearings, which are always measured in the clockwise direction.

So, if one angle measures 50 degrees and the other measures 85 degrees, you can subtract their sum from 180 to find the measure of the third angle. Therefore, the third angle would measure 180 - 50 - 85 = 45 degrees.


What is the sum of the exterior angles of a polygon when measures 45 degrees?

The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon, whatever the measure of each one, is always 360 degrees.


What is the measure of the third angle in a triangle if the other two angle measures are 44 and 77?

59 degrees. The sum of the three angles is always 180.


What is a 30-60-90 right triangle?

in a 30-60-90 right triangle, a right angle is always 90 degrees, the smallest angle has a measure of 30 degrees, and the remaining angle measures 60 degrees.


What total angle measures always equal 360 degrees?

Circles measure 360 degreesAny quadrilateral as well.Try to picture this, if you take a rectangle, and make a diagonal line across it, you have two triangles. Triangles will ALWAYS measure up to 180 degrees, so since you have two, 180X2=360

What is the measure of the third angle of a triangle if the other two angle measures are 60 degrees?

The three internal angles of a triangle always add up to 180 degrees.Two angles of 60 degrees make 120 degrees, leaving a further 60 degrees.


If a parallelogram has an angle measure of 37 degrees what are the measures of its other 3 angles?

In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal in measure. Therefore, the angle opposite the 37-degree angle will also measure 37 degrees. The sum of the interior angles of any quadrilateral is always 360 degrees. Since opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal, the other two angles will also measure 37 degrees each.
