Two angles x and y are complementary - which means their angles add up to 90 degrees. Angle y is 20 degrees less
than angle x. Find the measure of each angle.

X=55° Y=35°

Step-by-step explanation:

X+Y=90°

Y= x-20

(X-20)+X=90°

2X-20=90°

2X=110°

X=55°

55°+Y=90°

Y=35°

step-by-step explanation:

p ÷ r = tan(x)

step-by-step explanation:

given that there is a figure below shows a right triangle: a right triangle is shown with hypotenuse equal to q units and the length of the legs equal to p units and r units.

graph is missing so i will create the graph as per given information.

the angle between the legs having lengths p units and q units is y degrees. the angle between the legs having lengths r units and q units is x degrees.

now we need to find about what is p ÷ r equal to.

so we can use trigonometric ratio tan(x)=[altitude]/[base] to find the value of p ÷ r, because p is the altitude and r is the base.

p ÷ r=tan(x)

hence final answer is p ÷ r=tan(x).
