If the complement of a certain angle is six times the measure of that certain angle, then what is the measure of that certain angle?
Pick one: A) 45° B) 30° C) 12.9° D) 18° E) 15°
Thecomplementof angle A is the angle which, when added to angle A, gives 90 degrees. The two acute angles of a right triangle are complements, for example.   The original angle is x, so the complement is 6x, and together, these add up to 90 degrees.   x + 6x = 90   7x = 90   x = 12.9°   Answer = (12.9°)
