two angles are complementary one angle measures 40 explain how you can determine the measure of the other angle

1 answer

If two angles are complementary, it means that their measures add up to 90 degrees.

In this case, one angle measures 40 degrees. To determine the measure of the other angle, you subtract the given angle's measure from 90 degrees.

90 degrees - 40 degrees = 50 degrees

So, the measure of the other angle is 50 degrees.
