what is one of the complementary angles is three more than two that twice the other? find the measure of each?
.
If two angles are complementary, the sum of the two angles equal 90 degrees.
.
Let x = one angle
then
2x+3 = other angle
.
x + 2x+3 = 90
3x+3 = 90
3x = 87
x = 29 degrees (one angle)
.
Other angle:
2x+3 = 2(29)+3 = 58+3 = 61 degrees
