Two complementry angle have measures of (7x) and (8x)
what is the value of n? what is the value of each angle mesuare
Complementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 90 degrees.
Let's set up an equation to represent this relationship:
7x + 8x = 90
Combining like terms, we get:
15x = 90
Dividing both sides by 15, we find:
x = 6
Now we can substitute this value of x back into the expressions for the angle measures:
First angle measure: 7x = 7 * 6 = 42 degrees
Second angle measure: 8x = 8 * 6 = 48 degrees
Therefore, the value of n is 6, and the measure of the first angle is 42 degrees, while the measure of the second angle is 48 degrees.
