Answer:

x = 11°

Explanation:

From the question the total angle here is 90° that means the angles are complementary.

Complementary angles are angles that add up to 90°

To find the value of x add the individual angles that's
\angle ZWY and
\angle XWY and equate it to

m
\angle XWZ that's 90°

So we have


\angle ZWY +
\angle XWY = m
\angle XWZ

2x + 8 + 5x + 5 = 90

7x + 13 = 90

7x = 90 - 13

7x = 77

Divide both sides by 7

We have the final answer as

x = 11°

Hope this helps you
