Question

If two angles are complementary, and one angles measures 36 degrees, what is the measure of the other angle?

Answer 1

Answer: 144

explanation: x + 16 = 180

x = 180- 16

144

Answer 2

Measure of the other angle is equal to
`144`°.

Explanation:

An angle is formed by two rays or lines or line segments that share the same vertex.

Two angles are said to be complementary if their sum is
`180`°.

Measure of one angle is equal to
`36`°.

Let measure of another angle be
`x`

Therefore,

`x+36=180\\x=180-36`

`x=144`°

So, measure of the other angle is equal to
`144`°.
