Two complementary angles have measures (4x)° and (2x)° . What is the value of x and the two angle measures?(2 points) x= , (4x)°= °, and (2x)°= °
Given that (4x)° = 60° and (2x)° = 30°, we can determine the value of x.
From (4x)° = 60°, we can equate the two expressions:
4x = 60
Solving for x:
x = 60 / 4
x = 15
Therefore, x = 15.
Substituting this value back into the expressions:
(4x)° = (4 * 15)° = 60°
(2x)° = (2 * 15)° = 30°
So, x = 15, (4x)° = 60°, and (2x)° = 30°.
Since two angles are complementary, their sum should be 90°. Let's set up an equation:
4x + 2x = 90
Combining like terms:
6x = 90
Dividing both sides by 6:
x = 15
Therefore, x = 15.
Now let's substitute the value of x into the angle measures:
(4x)° = (4 * 15)° = 60°
(2x)° = (2 * 15)° = 30°
So, (4x)° = 60° and (2x)° = 30°.
ther is a number slot before (4x)
Apologies for the confusion. Without the specific number given for the angle, we cannot determine the numerical values of (4x)° or (2x)°. However, we can still solve for x.
Let the number slot before (4x) be a. Then we have the equation:
a + (4x) + (2x) = 90
Combining like terms:
6x + a = 90
Since we don't have any information about the value of a, we cannot determine the specific value of x or the angle measures.
