To find the angle x between 112 and 90, use the formula for finding the angle between two lines. This formula states that the angle between two lines is equal to the difference between the slopes of the lines, divided by 1 plus the product of the slopes.
Let's first find the slopes of the lines represented by the given angles:
The line with angle 112° has a slope of tan(112°).
The line with angle 90° has a slope of tan(90°).
Using a calculator, we find that tan(112°) ≈ 0.2387 and tan(90°) is undefined.
Since one of the slopes is undefined, we can conclude that the angle x between 112 and 90 is 90°.
