The correct Answer is:
To find the measure of an angle that is its own complement, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Complementary Angles**: - Complementary angles are two angles whose sum is 90 degrees. If we have an angle \( x \), its complement can be expressed as \( 90 - x \). 2. **Setting Up the Equation**: - Since the problem states that the angle is its own complement, we can set up the equation: \[ x = 90 - x \] 3. **Solving the Equation**: - To solve for \( x \), we can add \( x \) to both sides of the equation: \[ x + x = 90 \] - This simplifies to: \[ 2x = 90 \] 4. **Dividing to Isolate \( x \)**: - Now, divide both sides by 2 to find the value of \( x \): \[ x = \frac{90}{2} = 45 \] 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the measure of the angle is \( 45 \) degrees. ### Final Answer: The measure of the angle is **45 degrees**. ---
