Question

Angle 1 and Angle 2 are complementary angles. The measure of Angle 1 is 66 degrees. The measure of Angle 2 is 2x degrees. Find the value of x.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Complementary angles add up to 90°

∠1 + ∠2 = 90°

66 + 2x = 90°

2x = 90° - 66°

2x = 24°

x = 24/2

x = 12°

∠2 = 2*12

∠2 = 24°
