If the measures of two
complementary angles are 7x
and 11x, then find x.
(1 point)
x = 5
x = 10
x = 22.5
x = 12
Since two angles are complementary, their sum should be equal to 90 degrees.
Therefore, we have the equation:
7x + 11x = 90
Combining like terms:
18x = 90
Dividing both sides by 18:
x = 5
So the value of x is 5.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
x = 5.
