The complement of angle M is 10 degrees. What is the measure, in degrees, of angle M?

Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees.

Let x = complement of angle M is 10 degrees.

We want to solve x + M = 90.

Let's solve for M.

10 + M = 90

M = 90 - 10

M = 80.

The measure of angle M is 80 degrees.
