Answer:

Answer:

72°

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by putting the information you’re given into an equation. The angle measure is 4 times the compliment so it has the measure 4x.

Complementary angles are two angels with a sum of 90°.

So our equation will be 4x + x = 90

Add your like terms to get 5x = 90

Divide 90 by 5 to get x by itself.

X = 18

Since the angle we’re trying to find is 4 times the compliment you’re going to multiply 18 by 4 which will give you your answer of 72°
