Question

The sum of two angles is 5

& therefore difference is 60°. Find their measures in degree.​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 65/2, y = -55/2 (however it's impossible as the angles can never be negative)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the angles be x and y

ATQ,

x+y = 5

x = 5-y (1)

also, x-y = 60

from (1)

5-y-y = 60

-2y = 60-5

y = -55/2

So, in (1)

x = 5-(-55/2) = 5+55/2 = 65/2
