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? Please

(__)° + 2x° = __°

1 answer

If the angles \( (2x + 3)^\circ \) and \( 2x^\circ \) are complementary, they add up to \( 90^\circ \). Therefore, we can write the equation as follows:

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

So the completed sentence is:

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