The difference between the two acute ang...

The difference between the two acute angles of a right angled triangle is `(pi)/9` radians. Express the angles in degrees.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`pi` radians `=180^{circ}`

`frac{pi}{9}` radian `=frac{180}{pi} times frac{pi}{9}=20^{circ}`

Let the two acute angles of the -angled triangle be `x` and `y(x>y)`

Then `x+y=90^{circ}`

and `x-y=20^{circ}`

Solving (i) and (ii) we get

`2 x=110^{circ}`

`Rightarrow x=55^{circ} `
