We know by definition that complementary angles add up to 90 degrees. We can set up an equation using the ration given:

17x+13x=90, with x representing the amount you need to multiply the ratio by to get 90.

17x+13x=90
30x=90
x=3

We now know that the number we multiply the ratio by is 3. The smaller number in the ratio is 13, and so therefore we multiply it by 3.

3*13=39

The answer is 39 degrees.

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=-4(x-2)²+3

put x-2=0

axis of symmetry is x=2

g(x)=-2(x²+8x)+15

=-2(x²+8x+4²-4²)+15

=-2(x+4)²+32+15

=-2(x+4)²+47

put x+4=0

axis of symmetry is x=-4

h(x) is minimum at x=1

axis of symmetry is x=1
