Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

If they're perpendicular, that means that angle ECM = 90 degrees and angle ACE = 90 degrees. To figure out if this works, plug that into the two equations they give:

ECM = 3x + 15

becomes

90 = 3x + 15

75 = 3x

25 = x

ACE = 4x - 10

becomes

90 = 4x - 10

100 = 4x

25 = x

Since you get x = 25 for both, you know that they are perpendicular because they both measure 90 degrees
