at least one is true
OpenStudy (xmoses1):
thank you! i have one more
OpenStudy (xmoses1):
Two angles are complementary. One of the angles is twice the other.
The larger angle has a measure of
120°
60°
45°
OpenStudy (xmoses1):
I am not sure how to do this problem. I know that complimentary means that the angles add up to 90 degrees.
OpenStudy (raden):
let one angle is x and the other 2x
x+2x = 90
solve for x

Thirty degrees?
OpenStudy (xmoses1):
Oh it is 45!
OpenStudy (raden):
yes, x = 30
obviously as the the larger is 2 * 30 = 60
OpenStudy (xmoses1):
So it isnt 45 degrees?
OpenStudy (raden):
no, it is 60 (twice of x)

with x is the first angle
OpenStudy (xmoses1):
ok, the reason that i thought that is because :
x+2x = 90
I divided both 2x and 90 by two and was left over with x=45.
But i see that you are right:)
OpenStudy (xmoses1):
Thank You!
OpenStudy (raden):
x+2x=3x
so, we have 3x = 90
divide by 3 to both sides
x = 90/3 = 30
you're welcome
OpenStudy (xmoses1):
Thank you for clarifying how to do this problem:)
