MCQ
If the supplement of an angle is three times its complement, then angle is:
  • A
    $40^\circ $
  • B
    $35^\circ$
  • C
    $50^\circ$
  • $45^\circ$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$45^\circ$

 Let the $\angle{\text{x}}$ be the required angle
Thus, according to the question
$180 - x = 3 (90 - x)$
$\Rightarrow 180 - x = 270 - 3x$
$\Rightarrow 2x = 90$
$\Rightarrow x = 45$
