Math Problem Statement

Find the complement of the following angle: 45°.

Solution

To find the complement of an angle, the formula is:

Complement of an angle=90given angle\text{Complement of an angle} = 90^\circ - \text{given angle}

In this case, the given angle is 4545^\circ. So,

Complement of 45=9045=45\text{Complement of } 45^\circ = 90^\circ - 45^\circ = 45^\circ

Thus, the complement of 4545^\circ is 4545^\circ.
