Question

An angle measures 72.2° less than the measure of its complementary angle. What is the

Answer 1

Answer:

We have the angles as;

8.9 and 72.2

Step-by-step explanation:

When two angles are complementary, they add up to 90

Let the first angle be x , the second angle is 72.2 degrees less and it is x-72.2

Thus, mathematically;

x + x - 72.2 = 90

2x = 90+ 72.2

2x = 162.2

x = 81.1

x = 81.1

The other will be

81.1 - 72.2 = 8.9
