What are the measures of two complementary angles are 7x+17 and 3x-20?

1 Answer

#82.1# and #7.9# degrees.

Explanation:

Since sum of two complimentary angles is #90# degrees, #rarr#

#(7x+17)+(3x-20)=90#
#:.10x-3=90#
#:.10x=93#
#:.x=9.3#

#:.(7 xx 9.3)+ 17 = 82.1# degrees.
#:.(3 xx 9.3) -20 = 7.9# degrees.

Therefore, the two complimentary angles are #82.1# and #7.9# degrees.
