Question 897511: angles abd and angles bdc are complementary
the measure of angle abd=(5x+1)
the measure of angle bdc=(3x-7)
I dont know how to find the measures. I subtracted (5X-1) from 90 and then i got 89=5x but then i dont know what to do after that

angles abd and angles bdc are complementary
the measure of angle abd=(5x+1)
the measure of angle bdc=(3x-7)
***
complementary angles add to 90˚
5x+1+3x-7=90
8x=96
x=12
angle abd=(5x+1)=61˚
angle bdc=(3x-7=29˚
