Enter your answer in the box.


x =

Answer 1

Angles are complementary

• x+22=90
• x=90-22
• x=68

x is 68°

Answer 2

68 degrees

Explanation:

The straight horizontal line is a straight angle with 180 degrees it is split in a way that you know under the right angle, is another right ange making up part of the 180° line, add 22 and then subtract what you get from 180 to get 68.

A simpler way, add the angles in the X and 22 degree things and there is a right angle, 90 degrees, subtract 22 from 90 and get 68

Two different ways, either will work

Hope this helps!
