Lines and angles
Let's say the measure of angle b = B. The measure of angle A is 6° greater, making A = B + 6.
Since they are complementary, angles A and B must add to 90<span>°. Make an equation:
A + B = 90
And solve it for B, substituting B+6 in for angle A:
A + B = 90
B + 6 + B = 90
2B + 6 = 90
2B = 84
B = 42</span><span>°
Now you know B = 42</span><span>°. Find A using A = B + 6. Since A is 6</span><span>° greater than B, that makes A = 42</span>° + 6° = 48<span>°.

Answer:
A = 48</span><span>°
B = 42</span><span>°</span>
