To find the value of x, we know that the sum of two complementary angles is 90 degrees.
So, we can set up the equation: 25 + 5x = 90
Now, we can solve for x by subtracting 25 from both sides: 5x = 65
Finally, we can divide both sides by 5 to isolate x: x = 13
Therefore, the value of x is 13.
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 .
