A right angle is formed by two adjacent angles with measures of (×)° and (x+30)°. What are the two angle measures?

1 answer

The two adjacent angles form a right angle, meaning their measures add up to 90°.

So, we have the equation x° + (x+30)° = 90°.

Combining like terms, we get 2x + 30 = 90.

Subtracting 30 from both sides, we have 2x = 60.

Dividing by 2, we find x = 30.

The two angles measures are 30° and 30° + 30° = 60°.
