A. Find the complement of the angle shown.
B. Find the supplement of the angle shown.
The angle is 52 degrees. Can anyone help?
Complimentary angles add up to 90°
So if one is 52° , the other is 90-52 ° = ...
Supplementary angles add up to 180°
So if one is 52° ........
Thank you math helper! This really helps 😁
Certainly! I can help you with that.
To find the complement of an angle, you need to subtract the measure of the angle from 90 degrees. The complement of an angle is the angle that, when added to the given angle, will result in a total of 90 degrees.
In this case, the given angle is 52 degrees. To find the complement, subtract 52 degrees from 90 degrees:
90 degrees - 52 degrees = 38 degrees
Therefore, the complement of the angle shown is 38 degrees.
Now let's move on to finding the supplement of the angle.
Similar to finding the complement, to find the supplement of an angle, you need to subtract the measure of the angle from 180 degrees. The supplement of an angle is the angle that, when added to the given angle, will result in a total of 180 degrees.
In this case, the given angle is still 52 degrees. To find the supplement, subtract 52 degrees from 180 degrees:
180 degrees - 52 degrees = 128 degrees
Hence, the supplement of the angle shown is 128 degrees.
