An complementary angle = 90°
one of the angles is twice as large as the smaller one
let the larger angle be x, and the smaller = y
x = 2(y)
x + y = 90
Plug in 2y for x
2y + y = 90
simplify, combine like terms
2y + y = 90
3y = 90
isolate the y, divide 3 from both sides
3y/3 = 90/3
y = 90/3
y = 30
plug in 30 for y in the equation x + y = 90
x + (30) = 90
isolate the x, subtract 30 from both sides
x + 30 (-30) = 90 (-30)
x = 90 - 30
x = 60°
The measurement of the larger angle is 60°
hope this helps
3,3 and 12,8 ( this is a guess )
They look like they are wearing a suit.
All the corners of a rectangle is equal to 90 degrees. So you need to set (x-1) and (2x+10) equal to 90 and then solve for x.
(x - 1) + (2x + 10) = 90
<em>Combine the like terms...
</em>3x + 9 = 90
<em>Subtract both sides by 9...
</em>3x + 9 - 9 = 90 - 9
3x = 81
<em>Divide both sides by 3...
</em><em>3x = 81
</em>(3x) / 3 = 81 / 3
x = 27
