Question

The complement of an angle is 37 degrees. What is the measure of the angle?

Answer 1

Complementary angles equals 180 degrees. So, 180 - 37 = 143 degrees as the complement.

Answer 2

Complementary angles have a sum of 90. The angle's measure is therefore 90 - 37 = 53 degrees. Since you described this as an algebra problem, maybe you're supposed to use a variable. In that case, call the angle m and use the fact that the sum of an angle and its complement are 90.

m + 37 = 90
m = 90 - 37 = 53

Answer 3

the complement of an angle is the angle that adds up to 90 when you add the 2 angles together.

COmplement = 90
supplementary angles add up to 180.

simply subtract 37 from 90.

which i will leave as an exercise for the readers.

Answer 4

complementary angles = two angles which have a sum of 90 degrees.

90deg - 37 deg = 53 degrees

the complement of 37degrees is 53 degrees

Answer 5

To remember the difference between complementary and supplementary angles, remember this:

It's Right to give a Complement. I think everyone pretty much remembers a right angle is 90. It's kinda lame but sometimes, lame works well.

:0)

Answer 6

For to angles to be complementary they add up to 90 degrees

Sam was thinking of supplementary to angles that add to 180 are supplementary

Answer 7

90-37 = 53 deg
