Question Example
Step by Step
A
You can represent the measures of an angle and its complement as xºand (90-x)º.
Similarly, you can represent the measures of an angle and its supplement as x and
(180 - x )°. Use these expressions to find the measures of the angles described.
The measure of an angle increased by 68° is equal to the measure of its complement.
The measure of the angle is
and the measure of its complement is

The measure of the angle is 11 and its complement is 79 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, when two angles are complementary, the sum of the angles equal 90 degrees

so now, if the first angle is x , the second angle which is increased by 68 degrees will be x + 68

So now if we add these two, the value we will get is 90 degrees

Mathematically, we have this as;

x + x + 68 = 90

2x + 68 = 90

2x = 90-68

2x = 22

x = 22/2

x = 11

the measure of the angle is 11 and its complement will be 11 + 68 = 79

c.

step-by-step explanation:

she should of added 9^2 and 12^2. that is because it is a^2+b^2=c^2. c^2 is the hypotenuse and should always be bigger than the other two numbers. which is why she should of added 9 squared and 12 squared together instead of 15 squared.
