Question 764216: Find the measure of two complementary angles if their difference is 12.
Answer by Cromlix(4381) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
One angle = x
Other angle = x + 12
x + (x + 12) = 90 degrees
2x + 12 = 90
2x = 90 - 12
2x = 78
x = 39 degrees
One angle = 39 degrees
Other angle = 51 degrees.
Hope this helps.
