Question

Let mAngleA = 40°. If AngleB is a complement of AngleA, and AngleC is a supplement of AngleB, find these measures. mAngleB = ° mAngleC = °

Answer 1

B is 50° and C is 130°

Explanation:

complementary angle

x+x=90°

40°+x=90°

x=90°-40°

x=50°

supplementary angles

x+x=180

50+x=180

x=180-50

x=30°
