Question

the sum of two adjacent angles is 72° is the measure of one of them is 12 more than the other then find the angles​

Answer 1

Answer:

The two angles are 42 and 30

Step-by-step explanation:

let the 2 angles be x and y

given

x+y=72-------->1st eq

and let

x=y+12

substitute the x value in 1st eq

(y+12)+ y=72

y+12+y=72

2y+12=72

2y=72-12

2y=60

y=60/2

y= 30

x=y+12

x=30+12

x= 42

therefore,the two angles are 42 and 30
