Question

Two complementary angles differ by 14. Find the angles.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two angles be "x" and "x + 14"

as they are complement = 90°

x + x + 14 = 90

2x + 14 = 90

2x = 90 - 14

2x = 76

x = 76/2

x = 38

hence the two angles are.... x = 32

and x + 14 = 38 + 14 = 52

hope it helps u.......

Answer 2

SOLUTION

Let the two complementary angles be x°& (90-x)°.

According to the question,we have:

=) x-(90-x)= 14

=) 2x= 104

=) x= 104/2

=) x=52°

So,

1st angle, x=52°

2nd angle,(90-x)°= 90°-52°= 38°

Hope it helps ☺️
