Question

find value of x when one is right angle and other is separated by 2 one of them is 55 (look at the fig for clear details ) ​

Answer 1

x = 35°

Explanation:

→ Remember that angles on a straight line add up to 180°

x + 90° + 55° = 180°

→ Collect the whole numbers

x + 145° = 180°

→ Minus 145° from both sides to isolate x

x = 35°

Answer 2

`\huge \boxed{x=35}`

Explanation:

Angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees.

Right angle ⇒ 90 degrees

90 + x + 55 = 180

Subtract 90 and 55 from both sides.

90 + x + 55 - 90 - 55 = 180 - 90 - 55

Simplify the equation.

x = 35
