What is the complementary angle of 38.1 degrees? Here we will define the complementary angle of 38.1 degrees, show you how to calculate the complementary angle of 38.1 degrees, and even illustrate the complementary angle of 38.1 degrees (38.1°) so you have a solid understanding of what it means.
The complementary angle of 38.1 degrees, also known as the complement angle of 38.1 degrees, is the angle that when added to 38.1 results in a sum of 90. Therefore, to calculate the complement angle of 38.1 degrees, we subtract 38.1 from 90. Here is the formula, the math, and the answer:
90 - angle = complement angle
90 - 38.1 = 51.9
51.9 degrees
38.1 degrees plus the complementary angle of 51.9 degrees equals 90 degrees, which means that together they will make an L-shaped 90-degree angle.
The illustration below shows 38.1 degrees colored in red and the complementary angle of 38.1 degrees, which is 51.9 degrees, colored in green.
As you can see from the illustration above, 38.1 degrees and 51.9 degrees form an L-shaped angle together. This proves that the two angles, 38.1 degrees and 51.9 degrees, are complementary angles.
