The sum of the two adjacent angles that make up a 90° angle is 90°.
So, x + (x + 30) = 90°.
Simplifying the equation, we get:
2x + 30 = 90.
Subtracting 30 from both sides, we have:
2x = 60.
Dividing both sides by 2, we get:
x = 30.
Therefore, x is 30°.

Apologies for the incorrect response. Let's solve it correctly this time.
x + (x + 30) = 90°
Simplifying the equation, we have:
2x + 30 = 90
Subtracting 30 from both sides gives:
2x = 60
Dividing both sides by 2, we get:
x = 30
So, x is 30°.
x + (x + 30) = 90°
Simplifying the equation, we have:
2x + 30 = 90
Subtracting 30 from both sides gives:
2x = 60
Dividing both sides by 2, we get:
x = 30
So, x is 30°.
