Question

If there are two complementary angles, <5 and <6, if m<5 =39 degrees, what equation can you write to solve for m<6?

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

If two angles are complementary, it means that their sum is equal to 90 degrees.

Since <5 and <6 are complementary angles, we can write the equation:
m<5 + m<6 = 90

Given that m<5 = 39 degrees, we can substitute this value into the equation:
39 + m<6 = 90

Therefore, the equation to solve for m<6 is:
m<6 = 90 - 39

Simplifying further gives:
m<6 = 51 degrees
