Question 509242
<font face="Times New Roman" size="+2">


The sum of an angle and its complement is 90 degrees.  So if the angle measures *[tex \Large 3x\ +\ 5], and the complement is *[tex \Large C] then:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 3x\ +\ 5\ +\ C\ =\ 90]


Solving for *[tex \Large y]:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ C\ =\ 85\ -\ 3x]


Supplement means the sum is 180, so:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ S\ =\ 175\ -\ 3x]

*[tex \LARGE e^{i\pi} + 1 = 0]
My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
