Two angles are complementary.
x and 90-x
------------------
The sum of the measure of the first angle and one-fourth the second angle is 66 degrees.
90-x + (1/4)x = 66
(-3/4)x = -24
x = 32 degrees
90-x = 58 degrees
----------------------
Find the measures of the angles.
What is the measure of the smaller angle?
What is the measure of the other angle?
