Question

two complementary angles differ by 40 degree. the measure of the smaller angle is?

Answer 1

dude this would be the answer

Answer 2

Let one angle be x. Then the other angle will be x + 40.

We know that Sum of measures of complementary angles is 90 degrees.

x + x + 40 = 90

2x + 40 = 90

2x = 50

x = 25.

The smaller angle is 25.
