Question

Find the measure of each angel

Answer 1

1.

We will write and solve an equation that expresses the given relation. Let x represent the angle measure. Its complement is (90-x).

... x =(1/4)(90 -x)

Subtract x and simplify

... 0 = (90/4) - (5/4)x

Divide by the coefficient of x, which is -5/4.

... 0 = -18 +x

Add the opposite of the constant.

... 18 = x

The angle is 18°.
