Which is greater x or 90 [#permalink]

Never assume that the given figure is drawn to scale unless explicitly stated.
We don't know that \(x = 90\) or \(x > 90\) or \(x < 90\)

That's why the answer is D

If y =0, we will have a nice right triangle with x=90. the answer would be c.
However, y has multiple options which might make x>90 or <90
D is the answer
