document.write( "Question 126221: two angles are complementary if their sum is 90 degrees. the second angle is 6 less then the 3times the first. find the two angles \n" ); document.write( "
Algebra.Com's Answer #92485 by uma(370)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let the first angle be x \n" ); document.write( "Then the second angle = 3x - 6\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "As they are complementary, their sum is 90 degrees \n" ); document.write( "==> x + 3x - 6 = 90 \n" ); document.write( "==> 4x = 90 + 6 \n" ); document.write( "==> 4x = 96 \n" ); document.write( "==> x = 96/4 \n" ); document.write( "==> x = 24\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Thus the first angle = 24 deg \n" ); document.write( "Second angle = 3(24) - 6 \n" ); document.write( " = 66 deg\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "good luck!!! \n" ); document.write( " |
