9x degree and (5x+62)degree are the measure of complementay angles,what is the measure of each angle? please and thank you
------------------
If A and B are complementary, A + B = 90 degrees
--------------------
Your Problem:
9x + 5x+62 = 90
14x = 28
x = 2
-------------
9x = 18 degrees (one of the angles)
5x_+ 62 = 72 degrees (the other angle)
========================================
