Question

The measures of two complementary angles are 12q-9 and 8q+14 . Find the measures of the angles.

A.42, 48

B.4.25

C.8.75

D.96, 84

Answer 1

4.25

Step-by-step explanation: 12q - 9 ) + ( 8q + 14 ) = 90

Combine like Terms: 20q + 5 = 90

Subtract 5 from both sides: 20q = 85

Divide both sides by 20: q=4*(1/4)

So your angle is 4(1/4) or 4.25 degrees
