You can put this solution on YOUR website! Complementary angles total 90 degrees.
If one angle is 55, then the complementary angle = 90-55 = 35.
.
If you have one angle:
4x-9
then the complementary angle is:
90 - (4x-9)
= 81 -4x
.
But without additional information, it is impossible to tell you what the value of 'x' is.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find the measure of the indicated angles complementary angles with measures
A. 4x-9 B. 6x-1
**
let A= one of the complementary angles=4x-9
let B=the other complementary angle=6x-1
The sum of complementary angles=90º
A+B=90º
4x-9+6x-1=90
10x-10=90
10x=90+10=100
x=10º
complementary angle=90-10=80º
ans:
The two compementary angles are: 10º and 80º
