Question

Write an equation to solve for x. Solve. (Hint: complementary and supplementary angles)

(Please write steps)

Answer 1

x = 18°

Explanation:

x + 72 = 90°

x = (90 - 72)° = 18°

Hope this helps

Answer 2

90=72+x

Explanation:

there is a tiny square in the corner, meaning that it's a 90 degree angle

we know that one angle is 72 degrees and another is 90, so we need to subtract 72 from 90 to find angle x

90-72=x
