Complementary angles = 90°
x= angle 1
(90-x)= angle 2

Subtract the two angles to get the difference between them (18°).

(90-x) - x= 18
combine like terms

90 - 2x= 18
subtract 90 from both sides

-2x= -72
divide both sides by -2

x= 36° angle 1


Substitute answer in to find angle 2:
=90 - x
=90 - 36
=54° angle 2

Hope this helps! :)

What is the equation of the line that passes through (4,-1) and (-2,3)
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer: y-6 = 0.5 (x-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

y − y1 = m(x − x1)

The equation is useful when we know:

one point on the line: (x1,y1)

and the slope of the line: m,

and want to find other points on the line.

Have a play with it first (move the point, try different slopes):

Which function is the inverse of f (x) = 2x + 8?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

f-1(x) = (x-8)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x+ 8

y = 2x + 8

replacing y and x

x = 2y + 8

2y = x- 8

y =( x-8)/2

f-1 (x) =( x-8)/2
