If two acute angles of a right triangle are equal, then each acute is equal to:

Open in App

Solution

In a right triangle, one angle = $90^{\circ}$

$∴$ Sum of other two acute angels

= $180^{\circ} - 90^{\circ} = 90^{\circ}$

$∵$ Both angles are equal

$∴$ Each angle will be = $\frac{90^{\circ}}{2} = 45^{\circ}$
