find the measure of an angle if it is 6 degree less than twice its complement
with solution pls.
complementary angles add up to 90
so if your angle is x
its compliment would be 90-x
twice its complement would be 2(90-x)
"angle if it is 6 degree less than twice its complement"
---> x = 2(90-x) - 6
solve for x, then check if your answer satisfies the "wording" of your problem
x- 84
y-6
lowkey out of topic and hella late but carat ?
an angle is less then 6 degree find the two complement angle solution
To find the measure of an angle, let's first understand what "complement" means. In geometry, the complement of an angle is the angle that, when added to the given angle, equals 90 degrees (a right angle).
Let's denote the measure of the given angle as "x".
The complement of angle "x" is 90 - x degrees.
According to the problem statement, the measure of angle "x" is 6 degrees less than twice its complement. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:
x = 2(90 - x) - 6
Now, let's solve this equation to find the value of "x".
Expanding the equation, we have:
x = 180 - 2x - 6
Combining like terms, we get:
x + 2x = 180 - 6
3x = 174
Dividing both sides by 3, we obtain:
x = 58
Hence, the measure of the angle is 58 degrees.
