a) complement: 90∘  89∘  1∘ a) complement: 90∘  75∘  15∘
b) supplement: 180∘  89∘  91∘ b) supplement: 180∘  75∘  105∘

15. Since the angles with measures  4x ∘ and  6x ∘ are assumed to be
complementary, we know that  4x ∘   6x ∘  90∘. Simplifying this yields

10x ∘  90∘ , so that x  9. So, the two angles have measures 36∘ and 54∘ .

16. Since the angles with measures 3x ∘ and 15x ∘ are assumed to be
supplementary, we know that 3x ∘  15x ∘  180∘. Simplifying this yields

18x ∘  180∘ , so that x  10. So, the two angles have measures 30∘ and 150∘ .

17. Since the angles with measures 8x ∘ and  4x ∘ are assumed to be
supplementary, we know that  8x ∘   4x ∘  180∘. Simplifying this yields

12x ∘  180∘ , so that x  15. So, the two angles have measures 60∘ and 120∘ .

18. Since the angles with measures 3x 15 ∘ and 10x 10 ∘ are assumed to be
complementary, we know that 3x 15 ∘  10x 10 ∘  90∘. Simplifying this yields
13x  25 ∘  90∘ , so that 13x ∘  65∘ and thus, x  5. So, the two angles have
measures 30∘ and 60∘ .

19. Since       180∘ , we know 20. Since       180∘ , we know
that that
117∘ 33∘    180∘ and so,   30∘ . 110∘ 45 ∘    180∘ and so,   25∘ .
– – – –
 150∘  155∘



21. Since       180∘ , we know 22. Since       180∘ , we know
that that
 4          180∘ and so,   30∘. 3         180∘ and so,   36∘.
–– –– –– ––

Thus,   4   120∘ and     30∘ . Thus,   3  108∘ and     36∘ .

23.   180 ∘  53.3∘  23.6 ∘   103.1∘ 24.   180 ∘  105.6 ∘ 13.2∘   61.2 ∘

25. Since this is a right triangle, we know from the Pythagorean Theorem that

simplifies to c2  89, so we conclude that c  89 .

30. Since this is a right triangle, we know from the Pythagorean Theorem that
a2  b2  c2. Using the given information, this becomes 62  52  c2 , which
simplifies to c2  61, so we conclude that c  61 .

31. Since this is a right triangle, we know from the Pythagorean Theorem that
a2  b2  c2. Using the given information, this becomes 72  b2  112 , which

33. Since this is a right triangle, we know from the Pythagorean Theorem that

 7

a 2  b 2  c 2 . Using the given information, this becomes a 2   5 2 , which

simplifies to a2  18, so we conclude that a  18  3 2 .

34. Since this is a right triangle, we know from the Pythagorean Theorem that
a2  b2  c2. Using the given information, this becomes 52  b2  102 , which
simplifies to b2  75, so we conclude that b  75  5 3 .

35. If x  10 in., then the hypotenuse 36. If x  8 m, then the hypotenuse of
of this triangle has length
this triangle has length 8 2  11.31 m .
10 2  14.14 in.

37. Let x be the length of a leg in the given 45∘  45∘  90∘ triangle. If the
hypotenuse of this triangle has length 2 2 cm, then 2 x  2 2, so that x  2.
Hence, the length of each of the two legs is 2 cm .

38. Let x be the length of a leg in the given 45∘  45∘  90∘ triangle. If the hypotenuse
10 10
of this triangle has length 10 ft., then 2 x  10, so that x    5.
2 2
Hence, the length of each of the two legs is 5 ft.

39. The hypotenuse has length 40. Since 2x  6m  x  6 2
 3 2m,
 
2
2 4 2 in.  8 in. each leg has length 3 2 m.

41. Since the lengths of the two legs of the given 30∘  60∘  90∘ triangle are x and
3 x, the shorter leg must have length x. Hence, using the given information, we
know that x  5 m. Thus, the two legs have lengths 5 m and 5 3  8.66 m, and
the hypotenuse has length 10 m.

42. Since the lengths of the two legs of the given 30∘  60∘  90∘ triangle are x and
3 x, the shorter leg must have length x. Hence, using the given information, we
know that x  9 ft. Thus, the two legs have lengths 9 ft. and 9 3  15.59 ft., and
the hypotenuse has length 18 ft.
