1. What is the measure of the complement of an angle whose measure is 72 degrees ?
2. Find the measure of the supplement of an angle whose measure is 72 degrees ?
3. Two angles form a linear pair. If the measure of the first angle is twice that of the second angle, what is the measure of each angle?

help po pls.

Answer:

1. =18°

Step-by-step explanation:

complement angle=90°

90° - (given angle)

90° -72°

=18°

answer is 18°

2.

Let x be the supplement angle of 72

x+ 72 = 180 (Supplementary Angle)

x = 180 - 72

= 108

3.

The angles are 60° and 120°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two Angles form a linear pair. If the first angle is twice that of the second angle, what is the measure of each angle

let x be the first angle

y be the second angle

linear pair angles are always supplementary

x + y = 180°

x = 2y

2y + y = 180°

3y = 180°

y =  60°

x = 2y = 2(60°) = 120°

Therefore, the angles are 60° and 120°.
