Question

You can represent the measures of an angle and its complement as x° and (90 − x)°. Similarly, you can represent the measures of an angle and its supplement as x° and (180 − x)°. Use these expressions to find the measures of the angles described. The measure of an angle increased by 50° is equal to the measure of its complement.

Answer 1

Complement = 90
1)x+50=90
2)x=90-50
3)x=40
