The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we can follow these instructions: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We need to find an angle \( x \) such that its complement is one-fourth of a right angle. ### Step 2: Define the Complement The complement of an angle \( x \) is given by: \[ 90^\circ - x \] ### Step 3: Set Up the Equation According to the problem, the complement of angle \( x \) is one-fourth of a right angle (which is \( 90^\circ \)): \[ 90^\circ - x = \frac{1}{4} \times 90^\circ \] ### Step 4: Calculate One-Fourth of a Right Angle Calculating one-fourth of \( 90^\circ \): \[ \frac{1}{4} \times 90^\circ = 22.5^\circ \] Now we can rewrite our equation: \[ 90^\circ - x = 22.5^\circ \] ### Step 5: Solve for \( x \) To find \( x \), we can rearrange the equation: \[ x = 90^\circ - 22.5^\circ \] Calculating this gives: \[ x = 67.5^\circ \] ### Step 6: Conclusion The angle \( x \) is: \[ \boxed{67.5^\circ} \] ---
