Two angles are complementary One angle has a measure that is five times the measure of the other angle What is the measure in degrees of the larger angle?
Complementary angles are angles that add up to 90 degrees. If the smaller angle is x, the larger is 5x, so 6x = 90. X equals 15, and the larger angle measures 75 degrees.
What is the measure of an angle that is 70 degrees more than its supplement?
Supplementary angles add up to 180° Let the smaller angle be x, then the larger angle is x + 70°, and: x + (x + 70°) = 180° → 2x + 70° = 180° → 2x = 110° → x = 55° → x + 70° = 55° + 70° = 125° Thus the two angles are 55° and 125°. Therefore the angle you want is the larger at 125°.
In the right triangle the ratio of the measures of the two acute angles is 41what is the measure in degreesof the larger acute angle?
72
What is the measure of the larger acute angle of a right triangle that has legs whos measures are 8 and 14?
60.255 degrees (rounded)
Smaller than a right angle?
An angle smaller than a right angle - is an acute angle. Larger than a right angle, but smaller than 180 degrees is an obtuse angle. Angles between 180 and 360 degrees are reflex angles.
