Question

3 times the measure of an angle is 14 less than the measure of its complement. What is the measure of the angle? 19° 57° 71° 76°

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 19°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let The angle be "a"

Now according to the question,

⇒ 3 × a = (90° - a) - 14° (Then remove the brackets)

⇒ 3a =  90° - a - 14°

⇒ 3 + a = 76°

⇒ 40° = 76°

⇒ a = 76/4

Now since you got 76/4 you have to make it into simplest form so it'll be :

19/1

Your answer is : a = 19°
