x is 98 degrees :
they give you two angles already 53 and 45 degrees
to find x you would add 53 and 45 to get 98 degrees
hope this helped

hello

so to find x, we need to use a rule.

the rule is: the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles.

so our exterior angle is xº, and the opposite interior angles are 53º and 45º.

we could set up a basic equation (although not completely necessary)

xº=53º+45º

xº=98º

hope this helps

have a nice day :)
