Question

If the difference between measure of two complementary angle is 26°.Find the complementary angle and the other angle
please help me​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Two angles who add upto 90° are called complementary angles . Let the smaller angle be x. Therefore , the bigger angle will be ( x + 26 ) . => x = 32 .

Answer 2

Answer:

a = 58°, b = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one of the angles be a. The other angle is b. Complementary angles mean that the two angles equal 90 degrees. That gives us the following:

a + b = 90

a - b = 26 (their difference equals 26 degrees)

We can use the elimination method:

a + b = 90 [ adding them]

a - b = 26

--------------

2a = 116

a = 116/2

a = 58°

Given, a-b = 26

58 - b = 26

- b = 26 - 58

-b = -32

b = 32
