Answers:
- angle1 = 156 degrees
- angle2 = 24 degrees
=======================================================
Explanation:
The two angles form a straight line, which is 180 degrees
Add up the angle expressions and set the sum equal to 180.
(angle1) + (angle2) = 180
(4x) + (x-15) = 180
(4x+x)-15 = 180
5x-15 = 180
5x = 180+15
5x = 195
x = 195/5
x = 39
We use that x value to find each missing angle
- angle1 = 4x = 4*39 = 156 degrees
- angle2 = x-15 = 39-15 = 24 degrees
Then notice how angle1+angle2 = 156+24 = 180 to verify the answer.
Side note: Angles that add to 180 are considered supplementary.

Answers:
x = 7
The measure of angle D is 14 degrees
-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
Angle C and angle D are complementary, which means they add to 90 degrees.
(angle C) + (angle D) = 90
(12x-8) + (3x-7) = 90
12x-8 + 3x-7 = 90
(12x+3x) + (-8-7) = 90
15x-15 = 90
15x-15+15 = 90+15
15x = 105
15x/15 = 105/15
x = 7
So you have the correct x value. Nice work.
Now use this x value to find the measure of angle D
angle D = 3*x - 7
angle D = 3*7 - 7
angle D = 21 - 7
angle D = 14 degrees
