HELP ASAP!!

Angles W and X are complementary. Determine the degree measure of ZW if mZX = 29.8°

55.1°

60.2°

90°

150.2°

Answer 1

(b) 60.2°

Explanation:

You want the measure of angle W if angles W and X are complementary and X = 29.8°.

Complementary angles

Complementary angles total 90°:

X + W = 90° . . . . . . . . . complementary relation

29.8° +W = 90° . . . . . . use given value

W = 90° -29.8° . . . . . . subtract 29.8°

W = 60.2°
