Question

Solve this problem in your notebook using the four steps.

An angle is 14° more than the measure of its complement. Find the number of degrees in each angle. The angles measure degrees.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first angle(smaller angle) be x

so the second angle will x+14

A.T.P. these two angles are complementary so,

first angle+second angle=90°

x+(x+14)=90°

2x+14=90°

2x=76°

x=38°

so both angles are:

38° and 52°
