Question

Difference in the measures of two complementary angles is 12 degree find the measure of each angle

Answer 1

let one angle be X.

another angle will be x+12

now, since they are complementary,

therefore, x+x+12=90

=2x+12=90

=2x=90-12

=2x=78

=x=78/2

=x=39

now x+12=39+12=51

thus,x=39 and x+12=51

Hope this helps!
