These two angles are complementary.

Question

46 degrees and an X
What is the measure of /_x?

Answer 1

Two angles are complementary if the sum of their measures is 90 degrees.

Given one angle is 46 degrees, we can find the measure of angle X (/_x) by using the following equation:

\[ 46 + X = 90 \]

To find X, subtract 46 from both sides:

\[ X = 90 - 46 \]

\[ X = 44 \]

So, the measure of angle X is 44 degrees.
