Angle A = X degrees
Angle B = 2X + 24
A+B = 3X + 24
But
A+B = 90, so
90 = 3x + 24
90 - 24 = 3x
66 = 3x
22 = x
So, Angle A = 22º and Angle B = 22+22+24 = 68º
Here's how to get that answer:
if 2 angles equal 90 degrees, and one angle is 24 more than twice the measure of the other angle, set up an equation with a variable.
Say x is the variable. One angle is 2x+24 because it's twice what x is plus 24. The other angle is x.
2x+24+x+90
Now solve.
Combine the x's to make the equation 3x+24=90.
Now subtract 24 from 90 to get 66.
3x=66
Now divide 66 by 3.
x=22.
We now have to find the measures of both angles.
2x=44, and 44+24=68
the smaller angle is 22 degrees and the bigger angle is 68 degrees.
We know this is right because 22+68=90.
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 measures add to 90 and supplementary angles measures add to 180. Whether they are next to each other or not does not matter.

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.
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 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.
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.
the larger angle is 60 and the smaller angle is 30.complimentary angles are 2 angles forming 90 degrees.
