Question

Two adjacent angles are inside a 90° angle. One angle has a measure of (x+4)° and the other angle has a measure of (3x+2)° . What is x ?

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

Since the two angles are adjacent, their measures add up to the measure of the larger angle, which is 90°.

Therefore, we have the equation:

(x+4)° + (3x+2)° = 90°

Combining like terms, we get:

4x + 6 = 90

Subtracting 6 from both sides, we get:

4x = 84

Dividing both sides by 4, we get:

x = 21.
