Question 1152229

An angle measures 68° more than the measure of its complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?
<pre>Let the larger angle be A
Then its complement = 90 - A
We then get: A = 90 - A + 68
A + A = 90 + 68
2A = 158
A, or {{{highlight_green(matrix(1,6, Larger, angle, "=", 158/2, "=",79^o))}}}
{{{highlight_green(matrix(1,5, Smaller, "angle:", 90 - 79, "=", 11^o))}}}
