Question 501505: the measure of a complement of an angle is three more than twice the measure of the angle. Find the measure of the angle and its complement Answer by cleomenius(959) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2x + 3 + x = 90
3x = 87
x = 29 This is the smaller angle.
2(29) + 3 = 61 degrees, the larger angle.
