If an angle is 30° more than one half of its complement, find the measure of the angle.
Let the angle be "x"
The, its complement will be (90o – x)
Note: Complementary angles: When the sum of 2 angles is 90°.
It is given that angle = 30o + Complement
x = 30o + (90o – x)
x = 30o + 45o - x/2
x + x/2 = 30o + 45o
= 75o
3x = 150o
x= 500
Thus, the angle is 500
