Question

an angle has a measurement of 40 degrees. what is the measurement of the complement angle?

Answer 1

An angle plus its complement must equal 90 degrees. Could you now find the complement of 40 degrees?

Answer 2

how do I figure out the measurement of the compliment? 90-40??

Answer 3

Yes.

Answer 4

Would 40+50 = 90?

Answer 5

Two angles are complementary if there sum is \(90^\circ\)

Answer 6

@fool: their

Answer 7

yes, thank you, this is my 1st time using this website, super cool :)

Answer 8

Yes, but we are not in a English forum :P

Answer 9

Well then, they must be complements. Very good. And welcome.

Answer 10

how do I figure out the measurement of the supplement?

Answer 11

An angle plus its supplement must equal 180 degrees.

Answer 12

Sum is \( 180^\circ \implies \) supplementary.

Answer 13

so if the angle measurement is 10degrees, the supplement is 170? 180-10?

Answer 14

You are correct.

Answer 15

whoo hoo, I got it!

Answer 16

you must be very smart.

Answer 17

haha, if i was, I wouldn't be on here looking for help!!

Answer 18

what is a supplementary angle?

Answer 19

If an angle is 30 degrees the supplementary angle is 150.
It is just another way of referring to the supplement.

Answer 20

how do i figure that out?

Answer 21

The same way you find the supplement. What is the supplement of 60 degrees?

Answer 22

i have to draw two intersecting lines. Then i have to label the vertical, adjacent and the supplementary angles.

Answer 23

Vertical angles: 1 and 3 2 and 4
Supplementary angles: 1 and 2 3 and 4 1 and 4 2 and 3
Adjacent angles 1 and 2 1 and 4 3 and 4 2 and 3

Answer 24

adjacent angles have a common side between them.
Supplementary angles make a straight angle (180 degrees is a straight angle)
