<h3>Question :</h3>

The degree measure of one of two complementary angles is twice that of the other. What is one of the degree measures of the angles?

<h3>Answer : </h3>

A.) 30 degrees

<h3>Solution :</h3>

Let one angle = x

According to statement,

Another angle = 2 × first angle

\sf : \implies Another \: angle = 2x

Now, we know that sum of complementary angles is 90°

Hence,

\sf : \implies x + 2x = 90^{\circ}

\sf : \implies 3x = 90^{\circ}

\sf : \implies x = \dfrac{\cancel{90}^{\circ}}{\cancel{3}}

\sf : \implies x = 30^{\circ}

\Large \underline{\boxed{\sf{ x = 30^{\circ} }}}

Therefore, one of the angle is 30°.

Another angle = 2 × 30° = 60°

Answer:

30°  is one of the degree measures of the angles.

Hence, option (A) is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Let 'x' be the degree measure of the first angle.

Given that the degree measure of one of two complementary angles is twice that of the other.

  • Thus, the other angle = 2x

<em><u /></em>

<em><u>Complementary angles</u></em>

  • We know that two angles are termed as complementary angles when the sum of their measured angles is 90°.

Thus the equation becomes

x + 2x = 90°

3x =  90°

Divide both equations by 3

3x/3 = 90°/3

x = 30°

Therefore, 30°  is one of the degree measures of the angles.

Hence, option (A) is true.

klemol [59]

Answer:

Total number of people who voted in the elections =  140.

Step-by-step explanation:

Votes received by Freda = 60%

So, the votes received by Sonja = (100 - 60)% = 40%

So  difference between the votes of Sonja and Freda = 60% - 40% = 20%

Also  Freda won by 28 votes, so difference between their votes = 28 votes

Let the total number of people voted = K

Now, according to the question

20 % of K = 28

\frac{20}{100}  \times K = 28\\

⇒ K = 2800/20 = 140

So, the total number of people who voted in the elections are 140.
