Answer:

60 degrees

Explanation:

A right triangle is 180 degrees. 60+75+a= 180degrees. It shows a right angle, with a line right at the middle. half of 90 is 45, so put that in the equation and you get 60+75+45=180 degrees. to solve for ? you want to take 45 + 75 + ? = 180 degrees 45 plus 74 is 135 so take 180-135 is 60. the ? will be 60 degrees.

I hope this helps : )

Answer: x = 60 degrees

Explanation:

As we see, there is a 90 degree angle formed the top left corner. You divided it by 2 and it is formed by both triangles and u get 45 degrees.

Now, according to angle sum property:

angle A + Angle B + Angle C = 180 degrees

therefore, 75 + 45 + angle c = 180

and by linear equation , angle c = 180 - [75 + 45]

= 180 -120

= 60

therefore, x = 60
