Answer 1

To find the equation for the two adjacent angles, we start with the information given. The measures of the two adjacent angles are \( (x + 18) \) and \( x \).

Since these angles are adjacent and together form a 90° angle, we can write the equation:

\[
(x + 18) + x = 90°
\]

Now, to simplify the equation:

1. Combine like terms:
\[
2x + 18 = 90
\]

This is the equation for the two adjacent angles. You can solve this equation to find the value of \( x \) if needed.
