consider the diagram of complementary angles. 5x° 31° what is the value of x? 6.2 59° 11.8 24.2°

Answer 1

Let's consider the diagram of complementary angles:

1) The sum of the two angles is 90 degrees.
2) One angle is 5x degrees.
3) The other angle is 31 degrees.

According to the information given, we can set up an equation:

5x + 31 = 90

Subtracting 31 from both sides:

5x = 59

Dividing both sides by 5:

x = 11.8 degrees

Therefore, the value of x is 11.8 degrees.
