Since the two adjacent angles are inside a 90-degree angle, their sum must be equal to 90 degrees.
Therefore, we can write the equation:
(x + 4) + (3x + 2) = 90
Combining like terms:
4x + 6 = 90
Subtracting 6 from both sides:
4x = 84
Dividing both sides by 4:
x = 21
Therefore, x is equal to 21.
Two adjacent angels are inside a 90 angel. One angel has a measure of (x+4) and the other has an angel measure of (3x+2) what is x?
