Answer: (3x-3)= 63 degrees, (x+5)= 27 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
-Complementary angles are angles whose sum is 90 degrees
-So set both equation sums equal to 90 degrees
1. Add x values together (3x-3)+(x+5)=90
2. Solve for x (4x+2) =90
3. x=22
4. Plug in x into both equations
(3(22)-3)= 63 degrees
(22)+5= 27 degrees
(You can see that both answers add up to 90, which is a way you can check your work!)
