Answer:

Complementary, X = 60 degrees

Explanation:

Complementary = 90 degree angle

Supplementary = 180 degree angle

(x - 30) + x = 90

(60 - 30) + 60 = 90

30 + 60 = 90

Hi there!


\large\boxed{\text{Complementary, x = 60}}

When two angles add up to 90°, then the two angles will be complementary.

We can solve for x knowing that both angles sum up to 90°:

90 = (x - 30) + x

Combine like terms:

90 = 2x - 30

120 = 2x

x = 60°.
