Question

Suppose two angles, angle A and angle B, are adjacent complementary angles. Also assume that angle A is 30 degrees less than two times angle A and angle B.
Find the measures of
angle A
and
angle B

Answer 1

angle A is 30 degrees less than two times angle A and angle B.

^what does that mean????

Answer 2

30 less than twice the sum?

Answer 3

* The second sentence is suppose to say, "Also assume that angle A is 30 degrees less than two times angle B"

Answer 4

A + B = 90
A = 2B - 30

so 90 - B = 2b -30

120 = 3B
B =40
A = 50

did you get the solution?

Answer 5

yes

Answer 6

Thanks!
