Angle A and angle B are adjacent and complementary angles. The measure of angle A is 58 degrees.

If b is the measure of angle B, which equation represents the relationship between the angle measures?
-b+58=90
-b−58=180
-b−58=90
-b+58=180
HELP PLEASEEEEEEEE

b+58=90 because complementary means that the angles add up to 90° so angle A+ angle B = 90

Answer:

b + 58 = 90

Explanation:

1. Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees.

  • This means that Angle B + Angle A = 90

2. Since we already have the value of Angle A, 58 degrees, our equation looks like this:

  • B + 58 = 90.

Therefore, the answer is b + 58 = 90.
