Angle g and h are complementary.
So g + h = 90
------------------------
If the measure of angle g is 3x + 6 and the measure of angle h is 2x - 11, what is the measure of each angle?

Equation:
3x+6 + 2x-11 = 90
5x-5 = 90
5x = 95
x = 19
---
3x+6 = 57+6 = 63 degrees
2x-11 = 2*19-11 = 38-11 = 27 degrees
