for two adjacent angles with measures x and (x + 30) that make up a 90 degree angle what is x?
To determine the value of x, we can set up the equation:
x + (x + 30) = 90
By combining like terms, we get:
2x + 30 = 90
Next, we can subtract 30 from both sides of the equation:
2x = 90 - 30
2x = 60
Finally, divide both sides by 2 to isolate x:
x = 60/2
x = 30
So, the value of x is 30 degrees.
