You can put this solution on YOUR website! Two angles are complementary. The measure of one angle is 3° more than one-half of the measure of the other. Find the measure of each angle.
let x=one of the angles
90-x=other angle
..
90-x=x/2+3
180-2x=x+6
3x=120
x=40
90-x=50
one of the angles=40˚
other angle=50˚
