a+(−1.2)=−5.5

a−1.2=−5.5

a = -5.5 + 1.2

a = -4.3

A+(-1.2)=-5.5
a+(-1.2)-(-1.2)=-5.5-(-1.2)
a=-4.3

To verify substitute a=-4.3 into the equation.

a+(-1.2)=-5.5
-4.3+(-1.2)=-5.5
-5.5=-5.5

An angle measured 10 degrees less than the measure of its complementary angle. Find the measure of both angles

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

The measure of the angles are 40 degrees and 50 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the measure of one angle in degrees

y ----> the measure of the complementary angle in degrees

we know that

If two angles are complementary, then their sum is equal to 90 degrees

$x+y=90$ ----> equation A

we have that

$x=y-10$ ----> equation B

Substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

$(y-10)+y=90\\2y-10=90\\2y=100\\y=50$

Find the value of x

$x=50-10=40$

therefore

The measure of the angles are 40 degrees and 50 degrees
