Find the measure of the complement of the angle. 80°

1 Answer

3 votes

The complement of an angle is another angle that, when added to the first angle, it's equal to 90°.

In other words, the sum of a number and its complement is always equal to 90°.

Using the variable x to represent the complementary angle, we can write the following equation:


80+x=90

Then, solving the equation for x, we have:


\begin{gathered} x=90-80 \\ x=10\degree \end{gathered}

So the complement of 80° is equal to 10°.
