Question 1096421: When solving for complementary angle if c= X 2 -4x+29 and D= 2x+13

If angles C and D are complementary, then the sum of their measures is 90. So





x = 8 or x = -6

Now check to see if they both satisfy the original problem....

x = 8: ; ; 61+29 = 90 YES!

x = -6: ; ; 89+1 = 90 YES!

There are two solutions to the problem:
(1) x = 8, making the two angles 61 and 29; and
(2) x = -6, making the two angles 89 and 1
