Question

The difference of two complementary angle is 18. Find the angles
.

Answer 1

Answer:36

Step-by-step explanation:LET X BE SMALLER ANGLE

X + X+18 = 90

=> X = 36

Answer 2

Two angles are complementary when they add upto 90.

Let such two angles be x and y.

This makes x+y=90 ...........(i)

Now, it's given that their difference is 18.

x-y=18 .....(ii)

add (i)& (ii)

x+y+x-y=90+18

2x=108

x=64

x-y=18

so y=x-18

y=64-18=36

So angles are 64 and 36
