Answer:
The measure of one angle is 81.3° and the other angle is 8.7°.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that two angles are complementary. One angle's measure is 3 more than 9 times the other angle.
Let the measure of one angle be 'x' and the measure of other angle be 'y'.
So, according to the question;
- <u>The first condition</u> states that two angles are complementary, this means that the sum of both angles must be equal to 90°, i.e;
x + y = 90°
x = 90° - y ---------------- [equation 1]
- The second condition states that One angle's measure is 3 more than 9 times the other angle, i.e;
x = 3 + 9y ------------ [equation 2]
Now, both the equations we get;
90 - y = 3 + 9y
9y + y = 90 - 3
10y = 87
= 8.7°
Now, putting the value of y in equation 1 we get;
x = 90° - y
x = 90° - 8.7° = 81.3°
Hence, the measure of one angle is 81.3° and the other angle is 8.7°.
