Question 667192: The measure of an angle is 26 less than 3 times the other angle. If the two angles are complementary angles, find the measure of each angle. 180 degree.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Complementary angles add to 90
...
x+y = 90
x = 3y - 26
...
3y - 26 + y = 90
4y = 90 + 26
4y = 116 degrees for the complement
...
3(29)-26 = degrees for the angle
