Two angles are complementary when they add up to 90 degrees<span>
</span><span>smaller angle = x
</span><span>larger angle = 9x
</span>
x + 9x = 90
10x = 90
x = 90/10
x = 9° ← smaller angle
larger angle = 9x = 9 * 9 = 81°
The ratio for the problem above is one to four. A ratio is a relationship between number which describes how many times the second number contains the first number. The problem above gave two metric unit of length which are the centimeter and meter and the ratio between those two is one to a hundred. Therefore, we have a comparison between two amounts which are 75 and 300 and we can conclude a ratio of one to four.
It is quite simple actually since it is simple division with the negative rules.
Just simplify the problem and use the negatives to determine if it is positive or negative. (two negatives equal a positive and one negative equals a negative)
