Suppose the two angles are x and y.

They are complementary so x + y = 90

and their difference is 6 so x - y = 6

Adding the two equations: 2x = 96 so that x = 96/2 = 48

Then, substituting this value of x in either equation, y = 42.

So the angles are 42 and 48 degrees.

Angles a and b are complementary angles angle a measure 2x minus 4 and angle b measures 4x minus 8 find the measures of the supplement of angle b?

Since angles ( a ) and ( b ) are complementary, their measures add up to 90 degrees. Therefore, we can set up the equation: [ (2x - 4) + (4x - 8) = 90. ] Simplifying this gives ( 6x - 12 = 90 ), leading to ( 6x = 102 ) and ( x = 17 ). Substituting ( x ) back, we find ( b = 4(17) - 8 = 60 ) degrees, and the supplement of angle ( b ) is ( 180 - 60 = 120 ) degrees.

What is the number of sides of a regular polygon if one angle measures 172 degrees?

What is the measure of the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle if one of its base angle measures 8 degrees?

If one base angle is 8°, the other base angle must also be 8°. The total of all angles for a triangle must equal 180°, so 180° - 8° - 8° = 164°.
