An angle measures 85.2° less than the measure of its complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

Answer:Complementary angles are two angles whose sum is 90 degrees.

Let x represent one of the angles.

The other angle which is 84.2 degrees less would be x - 84.2.

Using this, we can write an equation.

x + (x-84.2) = 90.

Combine like terms:   2x - 84.2 = 90

Add 84.2 to both sides of the equation.

2x = 174.2

Divide by 2:  x = 87.1  

and x - 84.2 would equal 2.9.       to check: does  87.1 + 2.9 = 90?  yes.

Step-by-step explanation: Thats as close as its gonna it i think

∵ He had 3 and 2/3 feet left = 11/3 feet

∴ He used = 28/3 - 11/3 = 17/3 feet = 5 and 2/3 feet

Find the other endpoint given the following <br><br> Endpoint: (5,-3) Midpoint: (7,-6)
Lilit [14]

The answer is (3, 0) for The second endpoint.  

Let's start by calling the known endpoint L and the unknown K. We'll call the midpoint M. In order to find this, we must first note that to find a midpoint we need to take the average of the endpoints. To do this we add them together and then divide by 2. So, using that, we can write a formula and solve for each part of the k coordinates. We'll start with just x values.

(Kx + Lx)/2 = Mx

(Kx + 7)/2 = 5

Kx + 7 = 10

Kx = 3

And now we do the same thing for y values

(Ky + Ly)/2 = My

(Ky + -6)/2 = -3

Ky + -6 = -6

Ky = 0

This gives us the final point of (3, 0)
