Question

find the measure of an angle which is 32 less than its compliment

Answer 1

let the angle be x.

since the angles are complementary, they add up to 90 degrees.therefore,the other angle is 90-x.

according to the statement,

x-(90-x)=32

x-90+x=32

2x-90=32

2x=32+90

2x=122

therefore x =122/2=61 degrees
