An angle measures 17.2° less than the measure of its complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

Question

It is a hard questin i cant even answer

Answer 1

A+B = 90

A + A-17.2 =90

2A = 90+17.2

2A = 107.2

A = 107.2/2

A = 53.6

B = 53.6-17.2 = 36.4

one angle is 36.4 degrees, the other is 53.6 degrees

they sum to 90 degrees, their difference is 17.2 degrees.
