Question

If 2 adjacent angles with the measures (2x+3) and (x-6)
What is an equation for these two adjacent angles.

Answer 1

Since the angles are adjacent, their measures add up to form a straight line (180 degrees). Therefore, the equation would be:

(2x + 3) + (x - 6) = 180

Simplify:

3x - 3 = 180

3x = 183

x = 61

Therefore, the two adjacent angles have measures of (2(61) + 3) = 125 and (61 - 6) = 55.
