Answer:
x = 23°
Step-by-step explanation:
Note: Complementary angles measure 90°
3x + (x - 2)° = 90°
=> 3x + x - 2° = 90°
=> 4x - 2° = 90°
Add the additive inverse of -2 to both sides of the equation
i.e 4x - 2° + 2° = 90° + 2°
=> 4x = 92°
Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of x which is 4
=> 4x/4 = 92°/4
x = 23°
Answer:
s=5
Step-by-step explanation:
2s-4=6
add 4
2s=10
divide by 2
s=5
Answer:
x=90° and y=35°
Step-by-step explanation:
to get x and y first you must find the middle angles based on the information you have so:
35+90+n=180° solve for n to get what the middle angles are (since they are vertical angles they are equal) so the middle angles are both 55 degrees
and then 180-x=that angle that is also on the line with x so we'll call it k
so k+55+y=180°
we can see that y equals 35* because I noticed that those are parallel lines on the outside of the triangle so 35* and y angles are congruent and y =35°
now 35+55+k=180°
solve for the angle next to x which we called k and it is 90°
so x=90° and y=35°
after all this math I realized that if they are parallel lines then we can just use that to figure it out so use the properties to find out that x=90° and y=35°
