Use the algebraic equation to find the measure of the two angles described. Begin by letting x represent the degree measure of of the angle's complement.
- The measure of the angle is 16 degrees greater than its complement.
--------------------------
Let x be the complement of "y":
Equations:
x = (90-x) + 16
2x = 106
x = 53 degrees
==================
90-x = 90-53 = 37 degrees
==========================
