Answer: 74 degrees and 16 degrees
Explanation:
A pair of complementary angles add up to 90 degrees.
If we know that one of the two angles is 58 degrees less than the other, we can solve the algebraic equation: x + (x-58) = 90, where (x) is the measure of the one angle, and (x-58) is the measure of the other angle.
x + x-58 = 90 is the same as 2x -58 = 90.
Adding 58 to both sides gives 2x = 148,
and dividing both sides by two gives x = 74.
We now know that one angle is 74 degrees, and the other angle is (74-58) degrees. This gives two angles of 74 and 16 degrees. They both add up to 90 degrees, so they are complementary angles.
