Answer: The answer is: " x = 11 . "
_____________________________
Step-by-step explanation:
The 2 (two) angles shown form a "right angle" (i.e. "90° angle") ;
that is, the 2 (two) angles are "complementary" (i.e. their measures add up to: " 90° " ,
_____________________
So, add up the 2 (two) given angles, set the sum equal to 90 ; and solve for "x" ; as follows:
_____________________
Note: One of the given angles measures: "5x" ;
The other given angle measures: "35" ;
_____________________
5x + 35 = 90 ;
____________________
Subtract "35" from Each side of the equation:
____________________
5x + 35 - 35 = 90 - 35 ;
to get:
5x = 55 ;
Now, divide Each Side of the equation by: "5" ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation;
and to solve for "x" ;
______________________
5x / 5 = 55 / 5 ;
______________________
to get : " x = 11 " .
