The complement of an angle is 8 times as large as the angle. find the measure of the complement

80⁰

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle = x

Complement = 90 - x

Given:

8x = 90 - x

9x = 90

x = 10⁰

Complement = 90 - 10 = 80⁰

in problems involving proportions, we can use cross products to test whether two ratios are equal and form a proportion. to find the cross products of a proportion, we multiply the outer terms, called the extremes, and the middle terms, called the means.
