SOLUTION: In triangle ABC, angles A and B are complementary angles. The measure of angle A is 10� leas than four times the measure of B. Find the measure of all three angles.

Question 1047512: In triangle ABC, angles A and B are complementary angles. The measure of angle A is 10� leas than four times the measure of B. Find the measure of all three angles.

If A and B are complementary (their measures adding to ),
then angle C measures ,
because the sum of the measures of all three angles in any triangle is .
If and are the measures , in degrees, of angles A and B,
" The measure of angle A is 10� leas than four times the measure of B" translates as .
Then,
