Question

the sum of th measures of two complementary angles is 90 deg. If one angle meansyre 6 deg more than twice the meausre of the other, fine the measure of the smaller angle

Answer 1

let x be the smaller angle

let the larger angle be 2x + 6

then since they are complementary

x + 2x+ 6 = 90

just solve the equation for x

Answer 2

thank you!
