Question

two complementry angles differ by 12° find them​

Answer 1

Answer:

angle 1= 39°

angle 2= 27°

Step-by-step explanation:

If 2 complementary angles differ by 12°, then;

Let angle 1=x

Let angle 2=x-12°

We know that the sum of complementary angles = 90°

angle 1+ angle 2=90°

= x+x-12°= 90°

= 2x-12°=90°

=2x= 90°- 12°

=2x= 78°

=x= 78°/2

=x=39°

Hence, angle 1= x= 39°

and angle 2= x-12°= 39°-12°= 27°
