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°.
Two angles are complementary if the sum of their measures is 90 degrees.Two angles are supplementary if the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.
If you're talking about two angles adding up to equal a total measure of 90, then the answer to your question is complementary angles.

60. Complementary angles' measures sume 90
sometimes... * * * * * No, never. Two angles are complementary angles if their measures sum to 90 degrees. An obtuse angle has a measure in the range (0, 90) degrees so two of them cannot sum to 90 degrees.
Complementary angles are angles that add up to 90 degrees. If the smaller angle is x, the larger is 5x, so 6x = 90. X equals 15, and the larger angle measures 75 degrees.
Complementary angles total 90 degrees so smaller is 90/5 ie 18 and larger 72.
The question is contradictory as complimentary angles are defined as having a sum of 90 degrees.
Two angles are complementary if the sum of their measures is 90 degrees.Two angles are supplementary if the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.
Two angles are complementary if the sum of their measures is 90 degrees.Two angles are supplementary if the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.
It is 15 degrees because complementary angles add up to 90 degrees
It is 15 degrees because complementary angles add up to 90 degrees
Two angles are considered complementary if their measures add up to 90 degrees. This means that if the sum of two angles equals 90 degrees, they are classified as complementary. Conversely, if two angles are complementary, their measures must sum to 90 degrees. Thus, the statements effectively define the same relationship between complementary angles.
the larger angle is 60 and the smaller angle is 30.complimentary angles are 2 angles forming 90 degrees.
If you're talking about two angles adding up to equal a total measure of 90, then the answer to your question is complementary angles.
complementary
complementary angles measures add to 90 and supplementary angles measures add to 180. Whether they are next to each other or not does not matter.
