Answer:

the answer is x=96


Explanation:

180-130= angle supplementary to 130. this equals 50.

180-134= angle supplementary to 134. this equals 46.

46+50=96

180-96=84

84 is supplementary to x. 180-84=x

the answer is x= 96....
there are two ways to do this problem one way is to find the values of the triangles however that method is more time consuming to save time add 134 and 130 together to get 264, than you do 360-264 to get 96. the reason you use 360 is because x is an exterior angle and no matter what the shape is exterior angles always add up to be 360 so that's why x=96.

hope this helps
