Answer:

11° and 79°

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles sum to 90°

let x be one angle then the other angle = x + 68 , hence

x + x + 68 = 90

2x + 68 = 90 ( subtract 68 from both sides )

2x = 22 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 11

The 2 angles are x = 11° and x + 68 = 11 + 68 = 79°

As a check : 11 + 79 = 90

The probability of missing the first shot is 40%. When she misses the first shot, the probability of missing the second shot is very, very low, only 5%. That means that the probability of missing both shots must be much smaller than the probability of missing the first shot.

40/100 * 5/100
0.4 * 0.05
= 0.02
= 2%
