What are the measures of the two complementary angles 12q - 9 and 8q + 14?
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "Complementary angles add to 90 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "12q-9 + 8q+14 = 90
\n" ); document.write( "20q + 5 = 90
\n" ); document.write( "20q = 85
\n" ); document.write( "q = 17/4
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "12q-9 = 12(17/4)-9 = 3*17-9 = 42 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "8q+14 = 8(17/4)+14 = 2*17+14 = 48 degrees
\n" ); document.write( "=======
