Answer:

[tex]A = 52[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]A = 14 + B[/tex]

Required

Find A

Since both angles are complementary; then:

[tex]A + B = 90[/tex]

Solve for B in [tex]A = 14 + B[/tex]

[tex]B = A - 14[/tex]

Substitute [tex]B = A - 14[/tex] in [tex]A + B = 90[/tex]

[tex]A + A - 14 = 90[/tex]

[tex]2A - 14 = 90[/tex]

Solve for 2A

[tex]2A = 90 + 14[/tex]

[tex]2A = 104[/tex]

Solve for A

[tex]A = 104/2[/tex]

[tex]A = 52[/tex]
