Hey there!
Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees.
We are given
An angle of 79 degrees
and we're asked to find the complement of the angle.
So let's set up an equation:
79+x=90
where x=the unknown angle
Subtract 79 from both sides:
79-79+x=90-79
x=11
Hence, the measure of the unknown angle is
[tex]\boxed{\boxed{\bold{11}}}[/tex]
Hope everything is clear.
Let me know if you have any questions!

(b) 11°
The sum of two angles is equal to 90 degrees.
Here, one angle is 79°
