complementary angles are angles whose measures sum to 90°
given:
+m<1 = 6x-30 and m<2 = 4x%2B10

find: what is the value of x and m<2+

%286x-30%29%2B%284x%2B10%29=90
6x-30%2B4x%2B10=90
10x-20=90
10x=90%2B20
10x=110
highlight%28x=11%29

and m<2 = 4x%2B10

m<2 = 4%2A11%2B10
m<2+= 44%2B10
m<2 = highlight%2854%29
