If two angles are complementary, their measures add up to 90 degrees.
So, we can set up the equation:
3x + (4x + 1) = 90
Simplifying:
3x + 4x + 1 = 90
7x + 1 = 90
Subtracting 1 from both sides:
7x = 89
Dividing both sides by 7:
x = 89/7
So the simplified equation corresponding to the measures of the angles is:
3x + (4x + 1) = 90
So, we can set up the equation:
3x + (4x + 1) = 90
Simplifying:
3x + 4x + 1 = 90
7x + 1 = 90
Subtracting 1 from both sides:
7x = 89
Dividing both sides by 7:
x = 89/7
So the simplified equation corresponding to the measures of the angles is:
3x + (4x + 1) = 90
