What is the complementary angle of 71.3 degrees? Here we will define the complementary angle of 71.3 degrees, show you how to calculate the complementary angle of 71.3 degrees, and even illustrate the complementary angle of 71.3 degrees (71.3°) so you have a solid understanding of what it means.
The complementary angle of 71.3 degrees, also known as the complement angle of 71.3 degrees, is the angle that when added to 71.3 results in a sum of 90. Therefore, to calculate the complement angle of 71.3 degrees, we subtract 71.3 from 90. Here is the formula, the math, and the answer:
90 - angle = complement angle
90 - 71.3 = 18.7
18.7 degrees
71.3 degrees plus the complementary angle of 18.7 degrees equals 90 degrees, which means that together they will make an L-shaped 90-degree angle.
The illustration below shows 71.3 degrees colored in red and the complementary angle of 71.3 degrees, which is 18.7 degrees, colored in green.
As you can see from the illustration above, 71.3 degrees and 18.7 degrees form an L-shaped angle together. This proves that the two angles, 71.3 degrees and 18.7 degrees, are complementary angles.
