6. A figure shows two nonadjacent angles with measure (n + 6) and
3n°. If the angles are complementary, what is the equation for the angle measures?
Since the angles are complementary, their measures add up to 90 degrees.
Therefore, we can write the equation as:
(n + 6) + 3n = 90
Simplifying the equation:
4n + 6 = 90
Subtracting 6 from both sides:
4n = 84
Dividing both sides by 4:
n = 21
So, the equation for the angle measures is: (21 + 6) and 3(21)
