Answer:

x = 20

Explanation:

The diagonals of a kite are perpendicular to each other, so the 4 angles at the intersection are right.

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle sum to 180° , then

2x + 2x + 10 + 90 = 180

4x + 100 = 180 ( subtract 100 from both sides )

4x = 80 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 20
