An angle measures 34° more than the measure of a complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

Question

I have a question on how to find the measures for this problem

Answer 1

Complementary angles sum to 90.

 

Let x = angle 1

Let x + 34 = angle 2

x + x + 34 = 90

 

2x + 34 = 90

 

2x = 56

x = 28

 

Angle 1: 28  

Angle 2: 28 + 34 = 62
