First we need to define our conditions. Since the angles are complimentary, the sum of the angles must be equal to 90 degrees.
let x = first angle
y = second angle
x + y = 90
from the second condition in the problem
x + y =72 + x -y
solving for x
x= 54
therefore the shorter side is 90 - 54 = y
y = 36 degree, the shorter side

Answer:
d)X=4 or x=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
X²-2x=8
X²-2x-8=0
(x-4)(x+2)=0
X-4=0 or x+2=0
X=4 or x=-2
Answer:
By flipping the second fraction (finding its reciprocal) we change the equation mathematically. In order to maintain the equation mathematically, we must turn the division question into a multiplication question.
