Algebra.Com's Answer #2186 by arunpaul(104) ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! let the two angle are = A and B \n" ); document.write( "so Angle A + Angle B = 90 degree\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "or A+ B = 90 \n" ); document.write( "again as per question let A = B + 3 \n" ); document.write( " putting the value of A in the above equation we have \n" ); document.write( "or B + 3 + B = 90 \n" ); document.write( "or 2B + 3 = 90 \n" ); document.write( "or 2B = 90- 3= 87 \n" ); document.write( "B = 87/2 = 43.5 degree \n" ); document.write( "so A = 90 - 43.5 = 46.5 degree (Ans) \n" ); document.write( " |
