Question

You can represent the measures of an angle and its complement as x °and (90 - x). Similarly, you can

Answer 1

Answer:

1. 33°
2. 90° -J°

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

If x represents the measure of the angle, its complement is 90-x. The problem statement tells us ...

  x +24 = 90 -x

  2x = 66 . . . . . add x-24

  x = 33 . . . . . . divide by 2

The measure of the angle is 33°.

__

2)

Using J for x in the given complement relation:

The measure of the complement of J° is (90 -J)°.
