Hey figure shows to nonadjacent angles with measures 2X +3 in to ask if the angles are complementary what is the equation for the angles measured

1 answer

If we want to know if the angles are complementary, we need to check if their measures add up to 90 degrees.

Let's call the measure of the first angle A and the measure of the second angle B.

According to the information given, the measure of the first angle is 2X + 3, and the measure of the second angle is also 2X + 3.

To determine if the angles are complementary, we need to add their measures and set the sum equal to 90 degrees:

A + B = 2X + 3 + 2X + 3

Simplifying the equation:

A + B = 4X + 6

Since we want to know if the angles are complementary, the equation for the angles measured is:

4X + 6 = 90
