------------------------------------------------
where what is the measure of each angle?
-------------------------------------------------

The angle, x
The complement, 90-x
Description of this, -48%2B%2890-x%29=x


-48%2B90-x=x
2x=90-48
x=45-24
highlight%28x=21%29
-
the complement is highlight%2869%29.

If an angle Measures 48 less than the measure of a complementary angle where is the measure of each angle
Hint: The angles CANNOT be 31 and 59 as the MORE-OFTEN-INCORRECT-THAN-CORRECT-INDIVIDUAL states.
