What is the supplementary angle of 51 degrees? Here we will define the supplementary angle of 51 degrees, show you how to calculate the supplementary angle of 51 degrees, and even illustrate the supplementary angle of 51 degrees (51°) so you have a solid understanding of what it means.
The supplementary angle of 51 degrees, also known as the supplement angle of 51 degrees, is the angle that when added to 51 results in a sum of 180. Therefore, to calculate the supplement angle of 51 degrees, we subtract 51 from 180. Here is the formula, the math, and the answer:
180 - angle = supplement angle
180 - 51 = 129
129 degrees
51 degrees plus the supplementary angle of 51 degrees equals 180 degrees, which means that together they will make a straight line.
The illustration below shows 51 degrees colored in red and the supplementary angle of 51 degrees, which is 129 degrees, colored in green.
As you can see from the illustration above, 51 degrees and 129 degrees form a straight line together. This proves that the two angles, 51 degrees and 129 degrees, are supplementary angles.
