Question

There are two complementary angles. The larger angle is 15 degrees more than twice the smaller angle. Find the measure of each angle.

Answer 1

Let the smaller angle be = x degrees
Then larger angle is 2x + 15 degrees

Answer 2

Since they r complementary angles, theri sum must be 90 degrees
so x + (2x + 15) = 90

Answer 3

Therefore 3x + 15 = 90
3x = 90 - 15
x = 75/3
x = 25

Answer 4

Hence smaller angle is 25 degrees
The larger angle is 2 x 25 + 15 =65 degrees
