You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let x degree the measure of the larger angel and y degree the measure of the other
Since they are complementary we write: x+y=90
Since their difference is 68 degree we have:x-y=68
We get the , adding two equations of the system we
have the equivalent equation: => .
Answer:The measure of the larger angel is 79 degree.
