Let, the measure of the required angled be A°.
Then, measure of its complement = ( 90 – A )° measure of its supplement = (180 – A)°
According to question,
6(90° – A) = 2(180° – A) –12°
⇒ 540° – 6A = 360° – 2A – 12°
⇒ 4A = 192°
⇒ A = 48°.

[(x)²]^1/3]1/4

= [(x²)^1/12] (as 1/3 * 1/4 = 1/12)

= x^1/6 (as 2/12 = 1/6)

We have to find the least number that is divisible by all numbers from 1 to 10.

Thus, 2520 is the least number that is divisible by every element and is equal to the least common multiple.

Hence, Option B is correct.

Using Rule 1 :
1st number × 2nd number = L.C. M. × H.C.F,
First number × Second number = HCF × LCM
⇒ 864 × Second number
= 96 × 1296 ⇒ Second number
