This will be the equation x=5(90-x)
solution= x=5(90-x)
x+5x=450
6x=450
6x/6=450/6 {divide by 6 to both the side to x}
x=75
ans= The angle is 15 degree and its compliment angle is 75 degree

The sum of an angle and its complement is always 90 degrees since they are complementary angles.
Let's assume that the measure of the angle is x degrees.
The complement of the angle is 90 - x degrees.
According to the given information, the measure of the angle is five times its complement:
x = 5(90 - x)
Simplifying the equation:
x = 450 - 5x
Adding 5x to both sides:
6x = 450
Dividing both sides by 6:
x = 75
Therefore, the measure of the angle is 75 degrees.
