Answer:

Angle GHI measures 56º, and angle JKL measures 34º.

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary Angles:

If two angles are complementary, the sum of their measures is 90º.

∠GHI is (5x+6)∘ and ∠JKL measures (3x+4)∘.

Since they are complementary:

[tex]5x + 6 + 3x + 4 = 90[/tex]

[tex]8x + 10 = 90[/tex]

[tex]8x = 90 - 10[/tex]

[tex]8x = 80[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{80}{8}[/tex]

[tex]x = 10[/tex]

Measures:

GHI: 5*10 + 6 = 50 + 6 = 56º

JKL: 3*10 + 4 = 30 + 4 = 34º.

Angle GHI measures 56º, and angle JKL measures 34º.

The measures of the two angles are 56 and 34 degrees

The sum of complementary angles is 90degrees

Given the measurement:

  • GHI is (5x+6)∘ and;
  • ∠JKL measures (3x+4)

Taking the sum and equating to 90 degrees

5x + 6 + 3x + 4 = 90

8x + 10 = 90

8x = 90 - 10

8x = 80

x = 10

∠GHI = 5(10) + 6

∠GHI = 56 degrees

∠JKL = 90 - 56

∠JKL = 34degrees

Hence the measures of the two angles are 56 and 34 degrees
