Both angles makes up the right angle or 90*. So…

Set the two expression added together equal to 90.

2x+2 + x+1 =90

Combine like terms.

3x+3 =90

3x=87
X= 29

Take x and substitute back into each expression to get the two angles.

2(29) +2 = 60*
29+1 =30*

The angles are 60* and 30* respectively.

Note that these angles add back to 90* or the measurement of a right angle.
