Question

Measures of some angles are given below. Find the measures of their complementary angles:

16${}^o$.

Answer 1

We know, two angles are complementary when they add up to ${90}^o.$

Given, measure of one complementary angle is ${16}^o.$

$\Rightarrow$ Measure of other complementary angle $={90}^o-{16}^o$ $={74}^o.$

$\therefore$ Measure of a complementary angle of ${16}^o={74}^o$.
