Question

Angles T and V are country that angle T has a measure of (2X +10) angle B has a measure of 48° what is the value of X

Answer 1

If T and V are complementary angles, their sum is 90°.

   V + T = 90°
   48° + (2X+10)° = 90° . . . . . . . substitute given information
   2X + 58 = 90 . . . . . . . . . . . . .. collect terms
   2X = 32 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. subtract 58
   X = 16 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. divide by 2

The value of X is 16.
