What is the measure of an angle is 28 degree more than the complement. find the measure of each angle.
Step 1. Let x be angle.
Step 2. Let 90-x be the complement of its angle.
Step 3. Then, x=90-x+28 since the measure of an angle is 28 degrees more than the complement.
Step 4. Solving equation in Step 3 yields the following steps
Add x to both sides of the equation
Divide by 2 to both sides of the equation
Then . Note the sum is 90 degrees.
Step 5. ANSWER: The angles are 31 and 59 degrees.
I hope the above steps were helpful.
