Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows a right angle. A ray extends from the right angle to create complementary angles. One angle measures 25 degrees. The other angle measures 5 x degrees. The angles are not labeled.
Solve for the value of x .
Since the angle measures 25 degrees and x degrees are complementary, their sum must be 90 degrees (since they form a right angle).
Therefore, we can set up the following equation:
25 + 5x = 90
Subtracting 25 from both sides:
5x = 90 - 25
Simplifying:
5x = 65
Dividing both sides by 5:
x = 13
So, the value of x is 13.
