Question

the difference between the measure of the two angles of a complementary pair is 40 ° find the measure of the two angles​

Answer 1

Given that let x,y be the two complementary angles then

Given that

x+y=90--- eqn1

x-y=40---be eqn 2 then by 1+2

x=65

y=25

Answer 2

Answer:

25 and 65

Step-by-step explanation:

let one angle = x

∴ second angle = x+40

Sum of complimentary angles = 90

∴ x + x+40 = 90

∴ 2x = 50

∴ x = 25

one angle = 25

other angle = 25+40 = 65
