Answer:

x = 9 Complementary

Explanation:

The angles are compplementary cause the angle add up to 90°

Well to find x we need to make the following equation,

46 + (5x - 1) = 90

We need to simplify and combine like terms,

46 - 1 = 45

45 + 5x = 90

-45 to both sides

5x = 45

Divide 5 by both sides

x = 9

Thus,

x is 9.

Hope this helps :)
