Algebra.Com's Answer #829493 by MathTherapy(10555)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The complement of an angle is 24 degrees greater than twice the angle. Write and solve an equation that represents this situation. Find the measure of the complement. \n" ); document.write( " Welcome BACK, tutor @ewatrrr. I haven't seen you in a while. I guess you may'ne been vacationing!\r\n" ); document.write( "\r\n" ); document.write( "Let complement be C\r\n" ); document.write( "Then angle = 90 - C\r\n" ); document.write( "We then get: C = 2(90 - C) + 24\r\n" ); document.write( "C = 180 - 2C + 24 \r\n" ); document.write( "C + 2C = 180 + 24\r\n" ); document.write( "3C = 204\r\n" ); document.write( "Measure of complement, or\n" ); document.write( " |
