Question

the angle are complementary and the smaller is 40 degree less than the larger

Answer 1

Since, complementary angles have an angle equals to 90°
Therefore, 90°-40°=50°
here's your answer i.e. 50°
please mark it as brainliest answer☺☺

Answer 2

let the smaller angle be x and the larger angle be x+40. therefore x+x+40 = 90 degree . 2x+40 = 90 . 2x= 90- 40=50. x = 50 ÷2 =25 . smaller angle = 25 degree and larger angle= 25+40=65degree. hope this helps .
