The measures of two complementary angles are 12q−9 and 8q+14 find the measures of the angles.

4  1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees.

Thus if 12q - 9 and 8q + 14 are complementary,

12q - 9 + 8q + 14 = 90.

Combining like terms, we get:

20q + 5 = 90

20q = 85

Thus, q = 85/20, or 17/4, or 4  1/4

step-by-step explanation:

assume that you have 3 different side lengths.   apply the pythagorean theorem here:   square each of the two shortest sides; call them a and b, so that their squares are a² and b².   also square the longest side, calling the result c².

now, if a² + b² = c² is true, the triangle is a right triangle; otherwise it is not a right triangle.
