2x (-2x) + 2 (+52) = 3x (-2x) - 52 (+52)

2 + 52 = 3x - 2x

x = 2 + 52

x = 54

These are vertical angles, and so they would equal each other.

Set the two angles = to each other

2x + 2 = 3x - 52

move all x to one side, and all numbers without variables to the other

2x (-2x) + 2 (+52) = 3x (-2x) - 52 (+52)

2 + 52 = 3x - 2x

x = 2 + 52

x = 54

54° is your value for x

hope this helps
