Answer:

75°

Explanation:

  • x° and (x/5)° are complementary angles.

  • -> x° + (x/5)° = 90°

  • -> (6x/5)° = 90°

  • -> x° = 90° * 5/6

  • -> x° = 75°

Answer:

x = 90

Explanation:


m\angle 1+m\angle 2=90


\Longleftrightarrow x+(x)/(5) =90


\Longleftrightarrow (6x)/(5) =90


\Longleftrightarrow x=(5* 90)/(6) =(450)/(6) = 75
