An angle measures 12° more than the measure of its complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?​

Mathematics

Answer:

The angles are 39 and 51

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the unknown angle

x+12 is the complement

Complements add to 90

x+x+12 = 90

Combine like terms

2x+12 = 90

Subtract 12 from each side

2x+12-12 = 90-12

2x = 78

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 78/2

x =39

x+12 = 39+12

         =51

Hugo and Koby are measuring the heights of plants in biology class.
Verizon [17]

The answers are shorter, higher, 2cm, 15cm, 20% and 15%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; From the given data Hugo measured his plant higher than its original height. Hugo measured his plant as 12 cm while it was actually 10 cm. So Hugo's measurement was off by 2cm. Hugo's percent error is given by dividing the difference in values by the actual value.= multiplied by 100.

% error = (difference in values / actual value) × 100

Hugo's % error = (12 - 10)/ 10 × 100 = 2/10 × 100 = 20%.

Step 2; Koby measured his plant lower than his plant's original height. He measured it to be 85 cm while it was 100 cm tall. So Koby's measurement was off by 15cm. The percent error is calculated in the same way.

% error = (difference in values / actual value) × 100

Koby's % error = (100 - 85)/ 100 × 100 = 15/100 × 100 = 15%.

Step 3; Hugo had a percent error of 20% while Koby has a percent error of 15%. So Hugo had a higher percent error of the two.

madam [21]

5.

To find this, you can do the is over of technique.

The is over of technique is as says - is over of and percent over one hundred.

If you use this technique, your equation should look like this:

x/50 = 10/100

Cross multiply 10 and 50 and divide by 100 to get the answer of 5.

Hope this helps!
