Four times the measure of the complement of angle B is 12 more than twice the differance between the measures of its supplement and complement. Find the measures of angle B.
----------
The complement of angle B is (90-B)
The supplement of angle B is (180-B)
----------
EQUATION:
4(90-B)=2((180-B)-(90-B))+12
360-4B = 2(90)+12
360-4B=192
-4B=-168
B=42 degrees
--------
