Question 919833: Can you find the measure of the larger angle of two complementary angles such that one-half the larger is 6 more than the smaller? Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x the smaller
(90°-x)/2 = x +6°
90°-x = 2x + 12°
78° = 3x
26°= x, the smaller. Larger is 64°
and...checking
32° = 26°+6°
