Complementary And Supplementary Angles - Quiz

Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    Complementary angles are angles that add up to 180.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    Complementary angles are angles that add up to 90 degrees, not 180 degrees.

    Rate this question:

  • 2. 

    These two angles are complementary.  What is the measure of angle x? 

    • A.

      30 degrees

    • B.

      28 degrees

    • C.

      26 degrees

    • D.

      118 degrees

    Correct Answer
    B. 28 degrees
    Explanation
    The two angles are complementary, which means that they add up to 90 degrees. Since angle x is one of the angles, its measure must be such that when added to the other angle, the sum is 90 degrees. The only option that satisfies this condition is 28 degrees, as 28 + 62 = 90. Therefore, the measure of angle x is 28 degrees.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    Supplementary angles have a total of _____________ degrees.

    Correct Answer
    180, 180 degrees, 180degrees, 180
    Explanation
    Supplementary angles are a pair of angles that add up to 180 degrees. Therefore, the total of supplementary angles is 180 degrees.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    What is the measure of angle x?

    • A.

      52 degrees

    • B.

      152 degrees

    • C.

      38 degrees

    • D.

      142 degrees

    Correct Answer
    D. 142 degrees
    Explanation
    The measure of angle x is 142 degrees because it is the only option that is not too small or too large. It is also the closest option to a right angle, which is 90 degrees.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    Find the value of y.

    • A.

      8

    • B.

      9
