Question

angle A is a compliment of angle b and m angle b = (6-5x) degrees and m angle a =(7-2x)degrees find m angle a

Answer 1

61

Explanation:

A + B = 90

6 - 5x + 7 - 2x = 90

13 - 7x = 90

- 7x = 90 - 13

- 7x = 77

- x = 77 / 7

x = - 11

A: 6 - (5 * - 11) = 6 + 55 = 61

B: 7 - (2 * -11) = 7 + 22 = 29

Together they equal 90 as they should.
