Question

the question is (If angle 1 is x degrees and angle 2 is complementary to angle 1, what is the measure of angle 2?

Answer 1

According to the definition, two angles are said to be complementary is the sum of their measure is 90 degrees.

`m\text{Angle 1}+m\text{Angle 2}=90^(\circ)`

Given that angle 1 measures 'x' degrees,

`x^(\circ)+mAngle2=90^(\circ)\Rightarrow mAngle2=90^{\circ^{}}-x^(\circ)`

Thus, the measure of angle 2 is obtained in terms of 'x'.
