Question

An angle measures 34.8° less than the measure of its complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

Answer 1

27.6° and 62.4°

Explanation:

If x is the measure of the angle in degrees, the given relation is ...

x = (90 -x) -34.8

2x = 55.2

x = 27.6

90 -x = 62.4

The angle is 27.6°, and its complement is 62.4°.
