\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I set up the equation as 90=x+(1/3x)+2 and proceeded to solve but i got x as equalling 132. This cant be right since complementary angles only can equal 90.

Very good ,,,,just off by a negative sign
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Let x & y be complementary angles,,,x+y=90,,,or,,,x=90-y
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "y= 2 + x/3,,,,,subst,,,,,y= 2+(90-y)/3 = 2+30-y/3
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "1.333 y = 32
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "y=24,,,,x=90-24 = 66
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "check\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "24 = 2 + 66/3,,,,ok
\n" ); document.write( ".
