Capitolo 2, Problema 13

Find the measure of (a) the complement and (b) the supplement of an angle with the given measure. See Examples 1 and 3. 45°

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Understand the definitions: The complement of an angle is what, when added to the angle, equals 90°. The supplement of an angle is what, when added to the angle, equals 180°.
To find the complement of the given angle (45°), set up the equation: \(\text{complement} + 45^\circ = 90^\circ\).
Solve for the complement by subtracting 45° from both sides: \(\text{complement} = 90^\circ - 45^\circ\).
To find the supplement of the given angle (45°), set up the equation: \(\text{supplement} + 45^\circ = 180^\circ\).
Solve for the supplement by subtracting 45° from both sides: \(\text{supplement} = 180^\circ - 45^\circ\).

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Complementary Angles

Complementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 90 degrees. To find the complement of a given angle, subtract the angle's measure from 90°. For example, the complement of 45° is 90° - 45° = 45°.

Supplementary Angles

Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 180 degrees. To find the supplement of a given angle, subtract the angle's measure from 180°. For example, the supplement of 45° is 180° - 45° = 135°.
