Question

The measure of angle A is 4° greater than the measure of angle B. The two angles are complementary. Find the measure of each angle.

Answer 1

A: 49° B: 41°

Explanation:

First, you know they are complementary, so they must be at least 45°. Then, since angle A is 4° greater than angle B, you add 4° to angle A (49°) and subtract 4° from angle B (41°).
