Answer:

29°

Explanation:

the sum of the interior angles in a triangle is 180°

from the picture you have 1 angle of 90° and 1 angle of 61°, sum and you find the "x".

180 - 90 - 61 = 29°

Answer:

x = 29 degrees

Explanation:

We know that all of the angles inside of a right triangle add up to 180. We also know that a right angle is 90 degrees. We can do 61 + 90 = 151. 180 - 151 = 29. This means that x = 29 degrees.
