Answer:
Explanation:
Angle 1 and Angle 2 add up to 90 degrees (a right angle).
Angle 1 is (x-5) and Angle 2 is 4x.
So let's add those up and set them equal to 90.
(x-5) + 4x = 90
Now solve for x.
5x - 5 = 90
5x = 95
x = 19
Substitute x = 19 back into the provided equations for Angle 1 and Angle 2.
Angle 1 = x-5 = 19-5 = 14 degrees.
Angle 2 = 4x = 4*19 = 76 degrees.
Now do a check - - - angle 1 + angle 2 should equal 90!
14 + 76 = 90 degrees.
