Thanks in advance :) Answer by cleomenius(959) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2x^2 + 35 + x + 10 = 90
2x^2 + x + 45 = 90
2x^2 + x -45 = 0
(2x - 9)(x + 5)
x = 9/2 = 4.5
2(4.5)^2 = 40.5 + 35 = 75.5 Angle A
4.5 + 10 = 14.5 angle B
75.5 degrees + 14.5 degrees = 90 degrees.
This does check.
