Answer:

x = 27

Explanation:

m<X + m<XWY + m<XYW = 180 (measures of <s of triangle add to 180)

m<X = 90

90 + m<XWY + m<XYW = 180

m<XWY + m<XYW = 90 Equation 1

m<XWY + m<VWY = 180 (linear pair) Eq. 2

m<XYW + m<ZYW = 180 (linear pair) Eq. 3

Add Eqs 2 & 3

m<XWY + m<VWY + m<XYW + m<ZYW = 360

m<XWY + m<VWY + m<XYW + m<ZYW = 360

According to Eq. 1, m<XWY + m<XYW = 90.

90 + m<XYW + m<ZYW = 360

Also, m<VWY = 6x & m<ZYW = 4x

90 + 6x + 4x = 360

10x = 270

x = 27
