1. **State the problem:** Given rectangle ABCD with angles at vertices B and C expressed as $(2x + 10)^\circ$ and $(3x - 30)^\circ$ respectively, find the value of $x$.
2. **Recall properties of rectangles:** In a rectangle, all angles are right angles, so each angle measures $90^\circ$.
3. **Set up equations:** Since angles at B and C are given by expressions, and both must equal $90^\circ$, we have:
$$2x + 10 = 90$$
$$3x - 30 = 90$$
4. **Solve the first equation:**
$$2x + 10 = 90$$
Subtract 10 from both sides:
$$2x + \cancel{10} - \cancel{10} = 90 - 10$$
$$2x = 80$$
Divide both sides by 2:
$$\frac{\cancel{2}x}{\cancel{2}} = \frac{80}{2}$$
$$x = 40$$
5. **Solve the second equation:**
$$3x - 30 = 90$$
Add 30 to both sides:
$$3x - \cancel{30} + \cancel{30} = 90 + 30$$
$$3x = 120$$
Divide both sides by 3:
$$\frac{\cancel{3}x}{\cancel{3}} = \frac{120}{3}$$
$$x = 40$$
6. **Check consistency:** Both equations give $x = 40$, confirming the solution.
**Final answer:**
$$\boxed{40}$$
