Makhi Kerr · Answer 1

Smaller angle is 5 degrees

Bigger angle is 85 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

x=smaller angle, y=bigger angle

x+y=90

y=17x

x+17x=90

18x=90

x=5

Megan Caldwell · Answer 2

The Smaller angle is 5 degrees

And the Larger angle 85 degrees because 5x17 equal 85+5 equals 90 therefore the 2 angles r complementary Bc the add to 90
