Question 7 • Reading HS- Integrated Math I

3 times the complement of an angle is 30 more than the supplement of the original angle. What is the measure of the angle?

Answer
A
15°
B
30°
C
60°
D
90°

Explanation

Let the angle be x°. Its complement is 90 − x°, so three times the complement is 3(90 − x). The supplement is 180 − x°, and 30 more than that is 180 − x + 30. Set them equal: 3(90 − x) = 210 − x, which gives x = 30°. The angle measures 30°, choice B.
