Answer:
28° and 62°
Step-by-step explanation:
Mark one angle as x
Then the other angle as y
Two angles are called complementary when their measures add to 90 degrees.
Therefore x + y = 90°
and x = 90° - y
It is also given that x = 2 * (y + 3)
90 - y = 2 * (y + 3)
90 - y = 2y + 6
- 3y = 6 - 90
-3y = - 84
// divide both sides by -3
y = 28°
Now combine the given y value into the expression x = 90° - y
x = 90 - 28
x = 62°
