Two angles are complementary. The sum of the measure of the first angle and one- fourth the second angle is 82.5 degree. Find the measures of the angles
...
let one angle =x
the pther angle = 90-x
..
x+1/4*(90-x)=82.5
(4x+90-x)/4=82.5
multiply by 4
3x+90=4*82.5
3x+90=330
-90
3x=330-90
3x=240
/3
x=80 degrees
other angle = 10 degrees
