Answer: 76 degrees and 14 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Complimentary angles add up to 90 degrees. Let x represent the complementary angle.

x+x-62=90

2x-62=90

2x-62+62=90+62

2x=152

2x/2=152/2

x=76

76-62=14

Answer:

Let u represent the lesser angle

u+u-62= 90

2u-62 = 90

2u = 90-62

2u = 28

Divide both sides by 2

u =14 degrees

Then the other angle = 90-14

=> 76 degrees
