A figure shows two nonadjacent angles with measures (2x+3)°

and 2x°
. If the angles are complementary, what is the equation for the angle measures?(1 point)
(__)° + 2x° = __°

1 answer

If the two angles are complementary, their measures add up to 90 degrees. Given the angles are (2x + 3)° and 2x°, we can set up the equation as follows:

\[ (2x + 3) + 2x = 90 \]

This equation states that the sum of the angle measures (2x + 3)° and 2x° equals 90°.

To fill in the blanks in your question, we can write:

(2x + 3)° + 2x° = 90°
