Answer: x = 14

Explanation:

When you have a right angle, they add up to 90 degrees

So you add up the two angles that you have that equal a total of 90 degrees

2x+22 + 3x-2 = 90

5x+20 = 90

5x = 70

x = 14

I hope this helps :D

Answer:

X = 14

Hope this helps!

Explanation:

The small red square means the angle is 90°.

( 2x + 22 ) + ( 3x - 2 ) = 90°

2x + 22 + 3x - 2 = 90

( 2x + 3x ) + ( 22 - 2 ) = 90

5x + 20 = 90

5x + 20 - 20 = 90 - 20

5x = 70

x = 14
