Expert Solution
Step 1

Let smaller complimentary angle be x and larger complimentary angle be y.

Total Equations are 2

x+y=90(1)

-x+4y=285(2)



Select the equations (1) and (2), and eliminate the variable x.

x+y=90 ×1     x + y = 90  
    +  
-x+4y=285 ×1   - x + 4y = 285  
     
            5y = 375 (3)





Now use back substitution method
 From (3)
5y=375

y=375/5=75
