Question 791269: Angle a and angle b are complementary measure of angle a is (5x+2) degrees find the measure of angle b Found 2 solutions by jim_thompson5910, DrBeeee:Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The problem statement is incomlete. They give us two unknowns a and b which add to 90, but there is no second equation to relate a and b . The second equation
(1) a = 2*x + 2 introduces a third variable, thus we need a third equation to eliminate x.
As given we can find limits for x, a, and b as follows
