Answer:
Let x be the measure of the angle we are trying to find, in degrees.
The complementary angle to x is 90° - x, since the sum of complementary angles is 90 degrees.
The problem tells us that x is 3.4 degrees less than its complementary angle, so we can set up the following equation:
x = (90 - x) - 3.4
Simplifying and solving for x, we get:
x = 86.6/2
x = 43.3
Therefore, the angle we are trying to find has a measure of 43.3 degrees, and its complementary angle has a measure of 90 - 43.3 = 46.7 degrees.
