Question

If the angle 2X -10° and X -5° are complimentary angles find X

Answer 1

Sum of two complementary angles = 90°

=> 2x - 10 + x - 5 = 90°

=> 3x - 15 = 90

=> 3x = 105

=> x = 35






Hence, Angles are :

• 2x – 10 = 2(35) - 10 = 70 - 10 = 60°

• x - 5 = 35 - 5 = 30°

Answer 2

Hey

Here is your answer,

Sum of two angles = 90

2x - 10 + x - 5 = 90
3x - 15 = 90
3x = 90 + 15
3x = 105
X = 105/3
X = 35

2x - 10 = 70-10
= 60°
X - 5 = 35 - 5
= 30°

Hope it helps you!
