Question

The difference in the measures of 2 complementary angle is 12°. Find the measures of the angles *

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

let x and (90-x) be the two angles.

given, difference of these two angles=12

=) x-(90-x)= 12

=) 2x= 102

=) x= 102/2

=) x=51°

So,

1st angle, x=51°

2nd angle,(90-x)°= 90°-51°= 39°
