The sum of the measures of two complementary angles is 90°. if one angle measures 24° more than twice the measure of the other, find the measure of the smaller angle.

X + y = 90

Let's make 'x' the bigger angle and 'y' the smaller.
X is 24 more than twice y.
x = 24 + 2y

Now plug that into the x of the first equation.
(24 + 2y) + y = 90

Combine like terms.
24 + 3y = 90

Subtract 24 from both sides.
3y = 66

Divide both sides by 3.
y = 22

The measure of the smaller angle is 22°
