C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Since the triangle is right angled, therefore, the sum of the two acute angles is 
Third angle 
Let the two acute angles be 
and 
then 
Also, 
(Given)
Adding (i) and (ii), we get 
.
Putting it in (i), we get 
.
Hence, the two acute angles are 
.
