Question 764173: An Angle is 14 degree more than its complementry angle.What is its measure.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Complimentary angles = 90 degrees
x = One angle
x + 14 = Other angle
x + (x + 14) = 90
2x + 14 = 90
2x = 90 - 14
2x = 76
x = 38 degrees
One angle = 38 degrees
Other angle = 52 degrees.
Total = 90 degrees
Hope this helps.
