Which statement justifies why ∠DBC measures 40°?

Given: angles ABD and DBC are complementary

Point B is on line AE between points A and E, point B is on line FD between points F and D, ray BC intersects with line AE at point B, line FD intersects with line AE at point B, the measure of angle ABD is 50 degrees, and it is given that angles ABD and DBC are complementary.

Respuesta :

The statement " the measure of angle ABD is 50 degrees, and it is

given that angles ABD and DBC are complementary " justifies why

∠DBC measures 40° ⇒ last answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise some fact s about angles

1. If two angles are supplementary then the sum of their

   measures is 180°

2. If two angles are complementary then the sum of their

    measures is 90°

∵ ∠ABD and ∠DBC are complementary  ⇒ given

∴ m∠ABD + m∠DBC = 90°

∵ m∠ABD = 50°

∴ 50 + m∠DBC = 90°

- Subtract 50 from both sides

∴ m∠DBC = 40°

The statement " the measure of angle ABD is 50 degrees, and it is

given that angles ABD and DBC are complementary " justifies why

∠DBC measures 40°
