Let let the angles be x and 26+x.
Since they are complementary their sum is 90 degrees.
Now using algebra we turn this into symbols and we write the equation.
x+(26+x)=90
2x=90-26=64
x=64/2=32
so the angles are 32 and (32+26)
or 32 and 58.

What is the complementary angle of 140 degrees?
No angle can be complementary to a 140 degree angle, as the sum of complementary angles is 90 degrees. But angles which are supplementary to each other add together to form a 180 degree angle.
If Two angles are complementary and one angle measures half the other what is the measure of each angle?
Two complementary angles add up to a right angle (90 degrees). If one of the angle is x, the other is 2x. So, x + 2x = 90 3x = 90 x = 30 Thus one of the angle is 30 degrees, and the other is 60 degrees.
If two angles are complementary to the same angle then they are what?
equal to each other
If one of two complementary angles is twice the measure of the other one what is the measure of each angle?
1st angle = 30 degrees 2nd angle = 60 degrees
What would be the measure for two complementary angles if one angle was 5 times the other angle?
They are: 75 degrees + 15 degrees = 90 degrees
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
What is the complementary angle of 140 degrees?
No angle can be complementary to a 140 degree angle, as the sum of complementary angles is 90 degrees. But angles which are supplementary to each other add together to form a 180 degree angle.
Two angles are complementary One angle has a measure that is five times the measure of the other angle What is the measure in degrees of the larger angle?
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.
Why do complementary or supplementary angles not have to be adjacent?
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.
If Two angles are complementary and one angle measures half the other what is the measure of each angle?
Two complementary angles add up to a right angle (90 degrees). If one of the angle is x, the other is 2x. So, x + 2x = 90 3x = 90 x = 30 Thus one of the angle is 30 degrees, and the other is 60 degrees.
Can two angles of a right triangle be complementary?
The two angles, other than the right angle itself, MUST be complementary.
If two angles are complementary to the same angle then they are what?
equal to each other
What are two angles that have the same measures have the sum of 90?
Two angles that have the same measure and sum up to 90 degrees are complementary angles. For example, if one angle measures 45 degrees, the other angle will also measure 45 degrees, and their sum will be 90 degrees.
What is a triangle that has one angle that measures 90 degrees and the other two are complementary?
A right angle
What are complementary angles always?
Complementary angles are angles that always add to 90° (ninety degrees). They are usually adjacent to each other, however in theory do not have to be. An example is: Angle "a" is 38°, and is situated next to, or adjacent to Angle "b" which is 52°. In this case, both angles (38 and 52) sum to ninety degrees, which means Angle a is complementary with, or to, Angle b. Another example is: Angle "a" is 56°, and is situated next to, or adjacent to Angle "b" which is 43°. In this case, both angles (56 and 43) do not sum to ninety degrees, which means Angle a is not complementary with, or to, Angle b. Complementary angles are studied in conjunction with supplementary angles (angles which sum to 180°) and angles at a point (angles which sum to 360°). Note: There does not have to be only two angles (however this is the minimum requirement, because a ninety degree angle can't have a complement of 0°). There can be three, five, ten, twenty, or whatever number of angles you wish (remember, you are not limited to there being ninety one degree angles because angles can have decimal points too, i.e. 56.32°). Hope this helped.
