Question 1167573: You can represent the measures of an angle and its complement as x° and (90 − x)°. Similarly, you can represent the measures of an angle and its supplement as x° and (180 − x)°. Use these expressions to find the measures of the angles described.

The measure of an angle increased by 38° is equal to the measure of its complement.
