The measures of complementary angles add up to 90 degrees. Angles A and B therefore add up to 90 degrees.

To find the value of x, set the sum of (the measures of) A and B to 90 (degrees), and solve algebraically.

m∠A + m∠B = 90°
(3x + 5)° + (2x - 15)° = 90°

5x - 10 = 90
5x = 100

x = 20

Then, plug the value of x back into each expression to find the measures of angles A and B.

m∠A = (3x + 5)°
m∠A = (3(20) + 5)°
m∠A = (60 + 5)°

m∠A = 65°

m∠B = (2x - 15)°
m∠B = (2(20) - 15)°
m∠B = (40 - 15)°

m∠B = 25°

You can check to make sure that the angles are complementary by adding them together. Their measures should equal to 90°.

65° + 25° = 90°

Check the picture below.

notice that the triangle ADH, since the segment AL is an angle bisector, meaning  it cuts the angle A in two equal halves, then the triangle ADH is only using half of A.

seraphim [82]
First, convert 7 kilometers to meters, which is 7000 meters.
Add that to 400, and now you he ran 7400 meters.
Now convert 1.6 kilometers to meters, which is 1600 meters.
Add that to 7400, and the total is 9000 meters.

Hope this helped!

Find the measure of the indicated angle to the nearest degree
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

14) sin Ф = 32/33

    sin Ф = 0.9697

        Ф = 75.86°

15) sin Ф = 16/36

     sin Ф = 0.444

          Ф = 26.39°

16) sin Ф = 29/36

     sin Ф = 0.806

          Ф = 53.66°

17) cos Ф = 11/34

    cos Ф = 0.324

          Ф = 71.12°

18) sin Ф = 21/40

     sin Ф = 0.525

           Ф = 31.67°

19) cos Ф = 6/14

     cos Ф = 0.429

          Ф = 64.62°

20) cos Ф = 38/39

      cos Ф = 0.974

            Ф = 13°
