Angle U and Angle V are complementary angles. If Angle U is three less than twice Angle V, what are the measures of the angles?

Question

Angle U and Angle V are complementary angles. If Angle U is three less than twice Angle V, what are the measures of the angles?

Answer 1

Two Angles are Complementary if they add up to 90 degrees.

V = angle V
2V - 3 = angle U

V + 2V - 3 = 90
3V = 93
V = 31

angle V = 31
angle U = 59

Answer 3

To find the measures of Angle U and Angle V, we can start by setting up an equation based on the given information.

Let's say the measure of Angle V is "x". Since Angle U is three less than twice Angle V, we can represent the measure of Angle U as "2x - 3".

We know that complementary angles add up to 90 degrees. So, we can set up the equation:

Angle U + Angle V = 90

Substituting the values for Angle U and Angle V, we get:

(2x - 3) + x = 90

Now we can solve the equation:

Combine like terms: 2x + x - 3 = 90
3x - 3 = 90

Add 3 to both sides: 3x - 3 + 3 = 90 + 3
3x = 93

Divide by 3: (3x)/3 = 93/3
x = 31

So, Angle V is 31 degrees.

Now, we can find Angle U by substituting the value of Angle V into the equation for Angle U:

Angle U = 2x - 3
Angle U = 2(31) - 3
Angle U = 62 - 3
Angle U = 59

Therefore, Angle U is 59 degrees.

In conclusion, Angle V measures 31 degrees and Angle U measures 59 degrees.
