Answer:

  • 2x° = 64°
  • (x-6)° = 26°

Step-by-step explanation:

The acute angles in a right triangle are complementary:

  2x° +(x -6)° = 90°

  3x = 96 . . . . . . . . . divide by °, add 6

  x = 32 . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

  (x-6)° = (32 -6)° = 26°

  2x° = 2(32)° = 64°

The acute angles have measures 26° and 64°.
