MCQ
The angle which is equal to 8 times its complement is:
A
$88^\circ$
B
$72^\circ$
✓
$80^\circ$
D
$90^\circ$
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
$80^\circ$
We know that two angles, whose sum is $90^\circ $, are called the complementary angle.
Let one angle be x then its complementary angle be 8x,
$x + 8x = 90^\circ$
$9x = 90^\circ$
$x = 10^\circ$
Its complementary angle is $8 \times 10 = 80^\circ .$
