Question

find the measure of the complement and the supplement of ( 8^{circ} ).
what is the measure of the complement of ( 8^{circ} )?

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the definition of complementary angles

Complementary angles add up to \(90^{\circ}\). Let the complement of \(8^{\circ}\) be \(x\). Then \(x + 8^{\circ}=90^{\circ}\).

Step2: Solve for \(x\)

Subtract \(8^{\circ}\) from both sides of the equation: \(x=90^{\circ}-8^{\circ}\).

$$x = 82^{\circ}$$

Answer:

\(82\)
