If two angles are complementary, the sum of their measures is 90 degrees. Call one of the angles x. This means that its complement is 90 - x degrees. But the difference in their measures is 12 degrees.

Answer:

51° and 39°

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles are angles that add up to 90°

If we let one angle = x

Then the other angle is ( 90 - x)

Since the difference between the two angles is 12°

⇒ x - (90 - x) = 12

x - 90 + x = 12

2x -90 = 12

2x = 102

x = 102/2

x = 51°

So, one of the angle is 51°

The other angle = 90 - x = 90 - 51 = 39°

What is (-3, -14) and (0, -9) written in slope intercept form? Thank you!
klasskru [66]

Answer:

Y= 5/3x + -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Well its

y=mx+b

m is slope

B is y intercept

To fidn y intercept, just make sure the X value of any coordiante given is 0 and the y value is not 0. So basically anything with (0, y), thats your y intercept.

Slope Is just

(y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

1) 136 is the circumference of a circle with what area? we know C=πd.
136=πd
136/π=d
d=43.290 so the radius is half that, or
r=21.645
taking area as our measure of size,
A=πr²
A=π•21.645²
A=1471.855. answer C is closest. difference is in how they and I rounded
