x + x + 2 = 90
2x + 2 = 90
-2. -2
to combine like terms
2x = 88
Divide both sides by 2 to isolate x
x = 44

Answer
A is x+2 = 46
B is x = 44

Total 90 degrees = complementary angle

The measure of angle A is 2° greater than the measure of angle B. The two angles are complementary. Find the measure of each angle.
