To find the value of x, we need to find a value that satisfies the equation (2x) + (3x) = 90°, since complementary angles add up to 90°.

Simplifying the equation, we get:

5x = 90

To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 5:

x = 90/5

x = 18

Now we can find the angle measures:

(2x)° = 2(18)° = 36°

(3x)° = 3(18)° = 54°
