Question 999976

Two angles are Complementary when they add up to {{{90}}} degrees (a Right Angle ). 

{{{(x + 17) + (4x + 3)=90}}}

{{{x + 17 + 4x + 3=90}}}

{{{5x + 20=90}}}

{{{5x =90-20}}}

{{{5x =70}}}

{{{x =70/5}}}

{{{x =14}}}

now find the measure of each angle:

{{{(x + 17)=14+17=highlight(31)}}}

{{{4x + 3=4*14+3=56+3=highlight(59)}}}
