Question

Angle 1 and angle X are complementary.
Angle 2 and angle X are complementary.
Angle 1=2n+2 and angle 2= n + 32
Find n.

Answer 1

the answer is supposed to be 30

Answer 2

but how

Answer 3

equate angle1 =angle 2

Answer 4

why? aren't you supposed to equal it to 90?

Answer 5

x + 2n+2 = 90
x + n + 32 = 90
systems of equations

Answer 6

oh lala

Answer 7

hold on lol

Answer 8

or you could do what shin said, if angle 1 is the comp. of x and angle 2 is comp. of x, then angle 1 = angle 2, so 2n + 2 = n + 32
so n = 30

Answer 9

flutter yea
