Answer:

x=12

Explanation:

The right angle is congruent to the other side. So 90-20=70. 6x-2=70. Add 2 to both sides to cancel out the minus 2. 6x=72 72/6=12

Answer:


\huge\boxed{\sf x = 12}

Explanation:

6x - 2 + 20 = 90 [Complementary Angles]

6x + 18 = 90

Subtracting 18 to both sides

6x = 90 - 18

6x = 72

Dividing both sides by 6

x = 12


\rule[225]{225}{2}

Hope this helped!
