Question

The difference between two complementary angles is 14. Which is the measure of one of those angles?

A. 14
B. 52
C. 83
D. 90

Answer 1

B due to 52-14=38 and 38+52=90

Answer 2

Let the first angle be x

Sum of complementary angle is 90

Then second angle will be 90- x

As difference is 14

Therefore

x - (90-x) =14

x-90+x=14

2x = 14 +90

x = 104/2

x = 52
