An Angle Measures 268 Less Than The Measure Of Its Complementary Angle What Is The Measure Of Each Angle class=

Answer :

Given :

  • An angle which measures 26.8° less than the measure of its complementary angle.

⠀

To Find :

  • The measure of each angle.

⠀

Solution :

  • Let's assume the one of the complementary angle as "x" and the other angle as (x – 26.8)° .

⠀

Now,

⠀

According to the Question :

⠀

[tex]{\longrightarrow \qquad \sf{ x + {(x - 26.8)}^{ \circ} = {90}^{ \circ} }}[/tex]

⠀

[tex]{\longrightarrow \qquad \sf{ x + {x - 26.8}^{ \circ} = {90}^{ \circ} }}[/tex]

⠀

[tex]{\longrightarrow \qquad \sf{ 2 {x - 26.8}^{ \circ} = {90}^{ \circ} }}[/tex]

⠀

[tex]{\longrightarrow \qquad \sf{ 2 x = {90}^{ \circ} + 26.8^{ \circ}}}[/tex]

⠀

[tex]{\longrightarrow \qquad \sf{ 2 x = 116.8^{ \circ}}}[/tex]

⠀

[tex]{\longrightarrow \qquad \sf{ x = \dfrac{116.8^{ \circ}}{2}}}[/tex]

⠀

[tex]{\longrightarrow \qquad \frak{\pmb{ x =58.4^{ \circ}}}}[/tex]

⠀

Therefore,

  • One angle = 58.4°

  • Other angle = 58.4° – 26.8° = 31.6°

⠀

Hence,

  • The measure of the each angles are 58.4° and 31.6° .

Answer:

The measurement of each angle is 58.4° and 31.6°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

  • Value of an angle is 26.8° less than its complementary angle

To Find :-

  • Measurement of each angle

Solution:-

let one angle be x and other be x - 26.8°

we know that, Sum of complementary angle is 90°

X + X - 26.8° = 90°

2x = 90° + 26.8°

x = 58.4

So , one angle is 58.4° and other one is 58.4 - 26.8 which is 31.6
