The measure of an angle is seventeen times the measure of its complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

5, 85

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles add to 90 degrees

Let x = 1st angle

17x is the 2nd angle

x+17x = 90

18x = 90

Divide each side by 18

18x/18 = 90/18

x = 5

The first angle is 5

second angle is 18*5 = 85

5°, 85°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let angles be x and 17x

x + 17x = 90

18x = 90

x = 5

17x = 85
