Question

Find the measure of angles if the difference in the measure of two complementary angle is given to you like 12 degree

Answer 1

Answer:

the sum of complementary angles = 90 degree

let one angle be = x

the other angle will be = x+12

therefore x+x+12=90

2x+12=90

2x=90-12

2x=78

x=39

hence one angle is 39 and the other is x+12=39+12=51
