Question

ZJ and ZK are

complementary angles.
The measure of ZJ is 18 less than the
measure of ZK. Find the measure of each
angle.

Answer 1

Answer: The measure of ∠J = 36° and ∠K = 54°.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

∠J and ∠K are complementary angles.

As we know that sum of two complementary angles is 90°.

and the measure of angle J is 18 less than the measure of angle K.

So, the measure of ∠J = 36° and ∠K=36+18=54°.

Hence, the measure of ∠J = 36° and ∠K = 54°.
