<1 and <2 are complementary. Solve for the measure of <1. <1 = 12x + 4
<2 = 9x + 2

A. 52
B. 4
C. 38
D. 8.3

A) 52

Step-by-step explanation:

If < 1 and < 2 are complementary angles, then it means that the sum of their measures add up to 90°.

< 1 + < 2 = 90°

12x + 4 + 9x + 2 = 90°

21x + 6 = 90°

21x + 6 - 6 = 90° - 6

21x = 84°

21x/21 = 84°/21

x = 4

Substitute the value of x = 4 into < 1 and < 2:

m < 1: 12x + 4 = 12(4) + 4 = 52°

m < 2: 9x + 2 = 9(4) + 2 = 38°

Therefore, the correct answer is A) m < 1 = 52°.
