Suppose H is in the interior of right angle JAK. The measure of JAH = (3x-8)º and the measure of KAH = (x+2)º. Find the measure of angle JAH

Ok so since its a right angle it adds up to 90° therefore                                           3x-8+x+2=90    4x-6=90   4x=96    x=24    so    JAH=3(24)-8     JAH=64°
