Question 252586: an angles measure is 43 degrees less than 6 times the measure of its complement. find the measure of both angles. Found 2 solutions by checkley77, drk:Answer by checkley77(12844) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x=6y-43
x+y=90
(6y-43)+y=90
6y-43+y=90
7y=90+43
7y=133
y=133/7
y=19 ans for the smaller angle.
x=6*19-43
x=114-43
x=71 ans.
Proof
19+71=90
90=90
