Answer:

The angles are 69.2 degrees and 20.8 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles, when added together, = 90°

We’ll call the first unknown angle a and the second angle b

b = a - 48.4

a + b = 90

So let’s substitute in for b in the second equation:

a + a - 48.4 = 90

2a - 48.4 = 90

2a = 138.4

a = 69.2

69.2 - 48.4 = 20.8 = b

Now, does a + b = 90?

69.2 + 20.8 = 90
