Q4 of 23 Page 87

Find the angles in each of the following.

Two complementary angles are in the ratio 3:2.

Let the complimentary angles be 3x and 2x


We know that two angles are said to be complimentary if their sum is 90°.


2x + 3x = 90°


5x = 90°


x = 18°


So, the complimentary angles will be 2×18° = 36° and 3×18° = 54°
