B O A more than its complement.
(iv)
Sol. Let the measure of the required angle be x°.
Then, measure of its complement = (90 – x)°.
Reflex angle x – (90 – x) = 20 2x = 110 x = 55
O Hence, the measure of the required angle is 55°.
A Ex.2 Find the measure of an angle which is 40°
less than its supplement.
B Sol. Let the measure of the required angle be x°.
Then, measure of its supplement = (180 – x)°.
(v)
(180 – x) – x = 40 2x = 140 x = 70

A ray OC is called the bisector of AOB, if 6(90 – x) = 2(180 – x) – 12
mAOC = mBOC.
540 – 6x = 360 – 2x – 12

Two angles are said to be complementary, if the
sum of their measures is 90°. = an angle of [180° – (87°28'43'')]

5x = 180º x = 36º

Since, the sum of the measures of an angle
and its complement is 90º = 59º + (60´ – 20´) [ 1º = 60´]
xº + xº = 90º 2xº = 90º xº = 45º = 59º + 40´ = 59º 40´
