If x and y are the two angles, then
x + y = 90
and x - y = 18
Adding the two equations together gives 2x = 108 so that x = 54
and then y = x - 18 = 36

How do you find complementary angles?
wikianswers isn't for your math homework. Sorry kid.
Can a exterior angle be found through the use of complementary angles?
false but You can find the measure of an exterior angle by using supplementary angles.
If the measures of two complementary angles are y and y-16 find the measure of the smaller angle?
Two complementary angles add up to 90°. So we have, y + (y - 16) = 90 2y - 16 = 90 add 16 to both sides; 2y = 106 divide by 2 to both sides; y = 53 y - 16 = 53 - 16 = 37 Thus the smallest angle is 37°.
Can you find the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a convex 70-gon?
Yes
Find the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a 21-gon?
it equals to 3420 degrees
When angles are complementary the sum of their measures is 90 degrees two complementary angles have measures 2X -10 and 3X -10 find the measures of each angle?
2x-10+3x-10=90 5x-20=90 5x=110 x=22
What are the methods used to compute the measures of complementary and supplementary angles?
The methods are subtraction. -- Subtract an angle from 90° to find its complementary angle. -- Subtract an angle from 180° to find its supplementary angle.
Two angles are complementary the measure of one angle is 21 more than twice the measure of the other angle find the measures of the angles?
23 degrees and 67 degrees
The measure of an angle is 4 times its complements find the measures of both angles?
Complementary angles total 90 degrees so smaller is 90/5 ie 18 and larger 72.
What is the measure of the complementary angle of 60 degrase angle?
Difference between two complementary angle is 60 degree find its angle
Two complementary angles have a difference of eighteen degree find their measure?
If the angles are A and B, then A - B = 18 Also, comp angles => A + B = 90 So A = 54 deg, B = 36 deg
Find the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a 13gon?
find the sum of the measures of the interior angles of 13-gon.
Find The measure of a complementary angles of 20?
90-20= 50 so50 is the complementary angle of 20
If two angles are complementary. And the measure of one angle is 3 degrees greater than twice the measure of the other angle. Find the measure of the greater angle?
If there were not that difference of 3o, the angles would be 60 and 30. Because of the difference the angles must be 61o and 29o.
The negative difference between the measures of supplementary angles is -45. Find the measure of the larger angle?
112.5 degrees
How do you find complementary and supplementary angles?
Complementary angles are found by subtracting a random angle from 90 degrees for complementary always and 180 for supplementary always
