To find the value of x, we first need to recognize that the two parts of the right angle should add up to 90 degrees.
So, we have:
20 + 5x + 15 = 90
5x + 35 = 90
5x = 55
x = 55 / 5
x = 11
Therefore, the value of x is 11.
So, we have:
20 + 5x + 15 = 90
5x + 35 = 90
5x = 55
x = 55 / 5
x = 11
Therefore, the value of x is 11.
