Questions: The complement of a 51° angle is 39°

Transcript text: The complement of a $51^{\circ}$ angle is $129^{\circ}$ $39^{\circ}$ $141^{\circ}$

Solution

Solution Steps

To find the complement of an angle, we subtract the given angle from 90 degrees. The complement of an angle $ \theta $ is given by $ 90^\circ - \theta $.

Step 1: Identify the given angle

The given angle is $ 51^\circ $.

Step 2: Calculate the complement

The complement of an angle $ \theta $ is given by $ 90^\circ - \theta $. Therefore, we calculate: \[ 90^\circ - 51^\circ = 39^\circ \]

Final Answer

The complement of a $ 51^\circ $ angle is $ \boxed{39^\circ} $.
