Answer:

The measures of the acute angles are 38 and 52 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right triangle, there are three angles, a right angle and two acute angles. In every traingle, the sum of the measures of the angles is 180 degrees. Let's call the acute angles a and b.

a + b +90 = 180

The problem also says that one angle is twice the difference of the other angle and 12. That would look like this:

a = 2(b-12)

Now we have two equations. If we simplify them, we get these:

\left \{ {{a=90-b} \atop {a=2b-24}} \right.

Now you can substitute a in the first equation for a in the second equation

90-b=2b-24

Add b to both sides of the equation

90 = 3b-24

Add 24 to both sides

114 = 3b

Divide both sides by 3

38 = b

Now, you can substitute 38 for b in the first equation and simplify.

a = 90-38

a=52

Therefore,

a=52, and b=38
