Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
complementary angles, when added, equal 90 degrees
so if 1 angle is x, then the other angle, its complement, is 90 - x.
x - 18 = 90 - x
x + x = 90 + 18
2x = 108
x = 108/2
x = 54
90 - x = 90 - 54 = 36
so one angle is 54 and its compliment is 36
Answer:
71
Step-by-step explanation:
Complementary angles have measures that add to 90°.
ABC and CBD are complementary angles.
Since the angles are complementary, their measures must add to 90°. Set up an equation and solve for n.
n + 18° = 90°
n + 18° − 18° = 90° − 18°
n = 72°
The measure of the complementary angle is 72°.
