try to work backwards in maths. You know two angles that addupto 90 deg. x+y=90 eqaution (1) let y be the complement we know y=x+24 equation (2) as it is 24 more than x as x is 24 less then y replacing y with x+24 we get x+x+24=90 equation (3) so, 2x+24=90 --> 2x=90-24=66 --> x=66/2=33 -->y=x+24=33+24=57 Ans:...

Let angle = x Complement of angle = 90 - x measurement equal to 24 less its complement gives a ridiculous equation so I think it should be equal to 24 less than its complement (like in the bold print to start): so x = 90 - x - 24 2x = 66 x = 33 So the measure of the angle is 3...

Let the two angles be x and y As they are compliments, x+y = 90.....(1) Given, x = y-24......(2) putting (2) in (1) y-24 + y = 90 So, 2y = 90+24 = 114 y = 57 Therefore from (2) x = 57-24 = 33.....answer.
