A figure shows nonadjacent angles with measures ( 2x + 3 ) and 2x. If the angles are complementary, wut is da equation for da angle measures?

(___) + 2x = ) ____

1 answer

Since the angles are complementary, their measures sum up to 90 degrees. The angles given are \( 2x + 3 \) and \( 2x \).

You 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 degrees.

So, the final equation for the angle measures is:

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