Every interior angle of square is a right angle (90°)
5x - 10 = 90
5x = 90 + 10
5x = 100
x = 100/5
x = 20
5x - 10 = 90
5x = 90 + 10
5x = 100
x = 100/5
x = 20
In a square, all four angles are equal to each other (90 degrees) and add up to 360 degrees.
So we can write this equation and solve for x.
4(5x - 10) = 360
20x - 40 = 360
20x = 400
/20 /20
x = 20
Therefore x = 20.
Let's check by substituting x into the angle and seeing if it does add up to 90 degrees like it is supposed to because it is a square.
5x - 10 = 90
5(20) - 10 = 90
100 - 10 = 90
90 = 90
It is true so x = 20.
