This is a simple algebra problem. Let A = smaller angle, B = larger angle B = 2*A -5 Substituting B = 90 - A, 90 - A = 2*A -5 3*A = 95 A = 31 2/3, B = 58 1/3

Two angles are complementary. The larger angle is 5 times bigger than the smaller angle. What are the measurements of each?

We know complementary means they add up to 90 degrees. Let x = small angle Therefore 5x = bigger angle x + 5x = 90 6x = 90 x = 90/6 x = 15 Therefore the smaller angle is 15 degrees and the bigger angle is 75 degrees (15 x 5).


How are acute angles alike from obtuse angles?

They are both either bigger or smaller than a right angle


Which angles are obtuse?

all angles that are more then 180 degrees. * * * * * No, angles which arer more than 180 degrees are called reflex angles. An obtuse angle is one whose measure is between 90 and 180 degrees. It is, therefore, always smaller than 180 degrees.


In pair of complementary angles can at least one of them be an obtuse angle?

No, because complementary angles are two angles whose sum is 90 degrees.An obtuse angle is greater than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees.


Are all angles acute?

No, angles smaller than 90 degrees are acute, angles bigger than 90 degrees are obtuse, angles that are 90 degrees exactly are right-angles, and angles larger than 180 degrees are reflex angles.


What is a internal angles?

How do you find the area of the square when you have a square smaller inside the bigger square?

Measure the bigger square first (actlike the spuare is invisible).


How do the acute and obtuse angles compare to the right angle?

I think obtus is smaller than right angle (90°) and acute is bigger.


Is a mole bigger than grams?

A mole is a unit used to measure the amount of a substance, while grams is a unit used to measure the mass of a substance. A mole is not bigger or smaller than grams; they measure different characteristics of a substance.


Why is AAA not an appropriate conjecture for triangle congruence?

It does not necessarily prove congruence but it does prove similarity. You can have a smaller or bigger triangle that has the same interior angles.


Are millimetres bigger than centilitters?
