What is the supplementary angle of 162 degrees? Here we will define the supplementary angle of 162 degrees, show you how to calculate the supplementary angle of 162 degrees, and even illustrate the supplementary angle of 162 degrees (162°) so you have a solid understanding of what it means.
The supplementary angle of 162 degrees, also known as the supplement angle of 162 degrees, is the angle that when added to 162 results in a sum of 180. Therefore, to calculate the supplement angle of 162 degrees, we subtract 162 from 180. Here is the formula, the math, and the answer:
180 - angle = supplement angle
180 - 162 = 18
18 degrees
162 degrees plus the supplementary angle of 162 degrees equals 180 degrees, which means that together they will make a straight line.
The illustration below shows 162 degrees colored in red and the supplementary angle of 162 degrees, which is 18 degrees, colored in green.
As you can see from the illustration above, 162 degrees and 18 degrees form a straight line together. This proves that the two angles, 162 degrees and 18 degrees, are supplementary angles.
