Let's solve this problem step-by-step.

STEP-BY-STEP SOLUTION:

We will be using simultaneous equations to solve this problem.

First we will establish the equations which we will be using as displayed below:

Equation No. 1 -

A + B = 90°

Equation No. 1 -

A = 2B + 12

To begin with, let's make ( A ) the subject in the first equation as displayed below:

Equation No. 1 -

A + B = 90

A = 90 - B

Next we will substitute the value of ( A ) from the first equation into the second equation and solve for ( B ) as displayed below:

Equation No. 2 -

A = 2B + 12

( 90 - B ) = 2B + 12

- B - 2B = 12 - 90

- 3B = - 78

B = - 78 / - 3

B = 26°

Then we will substitute the value of ( B ) from the second equation into the first equation to solve for ( A ) as displayed below:

A = 90 - B

A = 90 - ( 26 )

A = 64°

ANSWER:

Therefore, the answer is:

A = 64°

B = 26°

Step-by-step explanation:

I knew I would have 1 foot left so that made sure it wasn’t A then I knew that it the answer had to be in yards so I convert 8 feet into yards which becomes 2.7 so it’s not three which makes I’m not C. So 9 yards minus 2.7 yards would equal the answer B
