If an angle is measured 35 degrees, what is the other angle if both angles are complementary?
Explanation
Complementary angles sum up to 90 degrees.
To find the other angle, subtract the known angle from 90 degrees.
The answer is:
Find the area of a square with a side of .
Explanation
Write the formula for the area of a square.
Substitute the side.
The answer is:
If two angles are complementary, and one angle is , what is the value of the other angle?
Explanation
Two angles are complementary if they add up to . We can use the formula:
where x and y are the angles.
Now, we know one angle is . So, we will substitute and solve for the other angle. We get
What percentage of a circle is covered by a sector with a central angle of ?
Not enough information to determine.
Explanation
What percentage of a circle is covered by a sector with a central angle of ?
To find the percentage of a circle from the central angle, we need to use the following formula:
Where theta is our central angle.
Plug in our given degree measurement and simplify.
So, our answer is 66.67%

Find the area of a circle with a diameter of .
Explanation
Write the area of a circle.
The radius is half the diameter.
Substitute the radius into the equation.
The answer is:
Let
Find the area of a circle with a diameter of 8in.
Explanation
To find the area of a circle, we will use the following formula:
where r is the radius of the circle.
Now, we know . We know the diameter of the circle is 8in. We know the diameter is two times the radius. Therefore, the radius is 4in. So, we substitute. We get
Use the following pie chart to answer the question:
Which class has the lowest percentage of students?
Explanation
Let's look at the pie chart.
We can see it represents the percentage of students in each class. The legend on the right displays which color represents which class:
blue=Math
orange=Science
gray=Art
yellow=History
So, we will look at the percentages and find the smallest/lowest number. We see it is 19% and it is the yellow class. We know yellow represents History.
Therefore, History has the lowest percentage of students.
