Question

The measure of angle M is_degrees.

Answer 1

Answer:

m=37

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 angles are complementary, or add to 90 degrees. Wee know this because of the little square in the corner that indicates a right angle, which is equal to 90 degrees.

m+53=90

Solve for m by getting m by itself. To do this, subtract 53 from both sides to "reverse" the addition being done to m.

m+53-53=90-53

The 53s on the left cancel, and we are left with:

m=37

Answer 2

Answer:

M = 37°

Step-by-step explanation:

M + 53° = 90°

M = 90° - 53°

M = 37°
