Question

(a) an angle measures 53°. what is the measure of its complement? (b) an angle measures 66°. what is the measure of its supplement? measure of the complement: measure of the supplement:

Explanation:

Step1: Find the complement of \(53^{\circ}\)

Complementary angles sum to \(90^{\circ}\). So, \(90 - 53\).

Step2: Find the supplement of \(66^{\circ}\)

Supplementary angles sum to \(180^{\circ}\). So, \(180 - 66\).

Answer:

measure of the complement: \(37^{\circ}\)
measure of the supplement: \(114^{\circ}\)
