Describe a situation in which 2 angles are both congruent and complementary

1 Answer

5 votes

The only situation in which two angles are both congruent and complementary is when their measures are both 45°:

Two angles are complementary if their sum is 90°, and they are congruent if their measures are the same, say n. Therefore, to find two congruent angles which are complementary, we solve the following equation:

n+n=2n

2n = 90

2n/2 = 90/2

n=45
