what is da equatione for these two adjacent angles?

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

1 answer

To find the equation for the two adjacent angles given as \( (2x + 3) \) and \( (x - 6) \), you typically set their sum equal to \( 180^\circ \) if they are supplementary angles or to \( 90^\circ \) if they are complementary angles.

Assuming these angles are supplementary:

\[ (2x + 3) + (x - 6) = 180 \]

Now combine like terms:

\[ 2x + 3 + x - 6 = 180 \]

This simplifies to:

\[ 3x - 3 = 180 \]

Now, add 3 to both sides:

\[ 3x = 183 \]

Then divide by 3:

\[ x = 61 \]

So, the equation is:

\[ (2x + 3) + (x - 6) = 180 \]

If these angles are not supplementary, please clarify their relationship (for example, complementary).
