To find the value of \( x \), we can set up the equation based on the information provided.

The two angles are \( x \) and \( x + 30 \), and they add up to make a right angle (90 degrees). Therefore, we can write the equation:

\[
x + (x + 30) = 90
\]

Now, simplify the equation:

\[
2x + 30 = 90
\]

Next, subtract 30 from both sides:

\[
2x = 60
\]

Now, divide both sides by 2:

\[
x = 30
\]

Thus, the value of \( x \) is **30**.
