Question

A figure displays two nonadjacent angles with measures 3x° and (4x+1)° . If the angles are complementary, what is the simplified equation corresponding to the measures of the angles?(1 point)
Responses

(1x+1)°=180°
left parenthesis 1 x plus 1 right parenthesis degrees equals 180 degrees

(7x+1)°=90°
left parenthesis 7 x plus 1 right parenthesis degrees equals 90 degrees

(1x+1)°=90°
left parenthesis 1 x plus 1 right parenthesis degrees equals 90 degrees

(7x+1)°=180°
left parenthesis 7 x plus 1 right parenthesis degrees equals 180 degrees

Answer 1

Since the angles are complementary, their measures must add up to 90 degrees.

Therefore, the simplified equation corresponding to the measures of the angles is:

(3x)° + (4x + 1)° = 90°
