Question

Can a angle ever have the same measure as its complement? Explain.

Answer 1

if you had two angles x and y, and they were complementary, then

x+y = 90

Answer 2

yes, like the measure 45 degrees
its complement 45 deg too

Answer 3

if they were the same angle, then x = y or y = x

Answer 4

so you would have

x+y = 90

x + x = 90 ... plug in y = x

solve that for x to get your angle

Answer 5

O.0 wow... Too much hold on!! :P

Answer 6

Ok i got it!

Answer 7

so what do you get when you solve x+x = 90
