Answer:
22.5 degrees & 67.5 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, we know that a complimentary angle is 90 degrees, and that one of the angles is 3 times greater than the other one, so we can do
Angle 1 (<1)= x
Angle 2 (<2) = 3x
Equation:
3x+x=90
solve.
4x=90
90 divided by 4 would be 22.5
x=22.5
We named Angle 1 x, so we know that angle 1 is 22.5
If angle 2 is 3 times greater than angle 1, we could just simply do
22.5*3
and that will get you to 67.5 degrees! (Don't forget the degrees symbol or it will be incorrect.)
Cheers! I hope you understand the problem better now.
