An angel measures 53°. What are the measures of the angles comp meant and supplement?
A) Comlement, 37°; supplement, 137°
B) Complement, 127°; supplement, 47°
C) Complement, 37°; supplement, 127°
D) Complement, 127°; supplement, 37°
Please help me I’m really stuck on this
reiny that is not even one of the
no
The measure of ∠ABC is 53°. What is the measure of an angle supplementary to ∠ABC? what is it i need the answer
To find the complement and supplement of an angle, you need to understand the definitions of those terms:
1. Complement: The complement of an angle is the angle that, when added to the given angle, results in a sum of 90°.
2. Supplement: The supplement of an angle is the angle that, when added to the given angle, results in a sum of 180°.
Now let's apply these definitions to solve the problem:
Given: The angle measures 53°.
To find the complement:
1. Subtract the given angle from 90° (since the sum of the angle and its complement is 90°).
90° - 53° = 37°
To find the supplement:
1. Subtract the given angle from 180° (since the sum of the angle and its supplement is 180°).
180° - 53° = 127°
So, the measures of the complement and supplement of the angle are:
Complement: 37°
Supplement: 127°
Therefore, the correct answer is option C) Complement, 37°; supplement, 127°.
Use the property that
complementary angles add up to 90°
while supplementary angles add up to 180°
