उत्तर
Let one angle be x°.
Then, the other complementary angle becomes (90 - x)°
It is given that two times the angle measuring x°is equal to three times the angle measuring (90 - x)°
Or, we can say that:
2x = 3(90 - x)
2x = 270 - 3x
2x + 3x = 270
5x = 270
On dividing both sides of the equation by 5,we get
`x = 270/5`
x = 54
Also, the other complementary angle becomes
90 - x = 90 - 54
= 36
Thus, the measure of the required smaller angle is 36°.
