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

Since the angles are complementary, their measures add up to \(90^\circ\). Given the angles are \((2x + 3)^\circ\) and \(2x^\circ\), we can set up the equation as follows:

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

Therefore, the equation for the angle measures is:

\[ (2x + 3)° + 2x° = 90° \]
