Please help! I am so lost! The question is "R and S are complementary angles and U and V are also complementary angles. If R=y-2, S=2x+3, U=2x-y and V=x-1, find the values of x, y, R, S, U and V."

1 answer

R+S = 90
U+V = 90
so,

y-2 + 2x+3 = 90
2x-y + x-1 = 90

2x+y = 89
3x-y = 91

5x = 180
x = 36

and now you can take it from there.
