1. If 3x - 10° and 2x + 15° are complementary, find them.
3. If 5x + 14º and x + 46° are supplementary, find them.
Answers
Here is your answer mate ..
1) 3x - 10 + 2x + 15 = 90
5x - 10 + 15 = 90
5x + 5 = 90
5x = 90 - 5
5x = 85
x = 85/ 5
x = 17
Now substitute x in the given angles
3(17) - 10 = 41
2(17) + 15 =49
so the angles are 41° and 49°
3)5x + 14 + x + 46 = 180
6x + 60 = 180
6x = 180 - 60
6x = 120
x = 20
Now substitute x in the given angles
5(20)+14=114
20+46 = 66
so the angles are 114° and 66° .
Answer:
1)41°,49°
2)114°,66°
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of complementary angles are 90°
Therefore,
3x-10+2x+15=90
or, 5x+5=90
or, 5x=85
or, x= 85/5
or, x= 17
Therefore the angles are:--
3x-10=(3*17)-10
=51-10
=41°
Other angle:-
2x+15
=(2*17)+15
=34+15
=49°
Angles are 41° and 49°
Sum of supplementary angles are 180°
Therfore,
5x+14+x+46=180
or, 6x+60=180
or, 6x= 120
or, x= 120/6
or ,x= 20
Therfore the angles are:--
5x+14=(5*20)+14
=100+14
=114°
Other angle:-
x+46=20+46
=66°
Angles are 114° and 66°
