Question 717849
x = one angle
90 - x = complementary angle {complementary angles add up to 90°}


x = 90 - x + 86 {one angle is 86° more than its complementary angle}
x = -x + 176 {combined like terms on right}
2x = 176 {added x to each side}
x = 88 {divided each side by 2}
90 - x = 2 {substituted 88, in for x, into 90 - x}


one angle is 88°
complementary angle is 2°
