Answer:


\boxed{\boxed{\sf \angle x=76^(\circ)}}

Explanation:

Given the diagram, we can see that ∠DIJ and ∠AIC are supplementary angles because they form a straight line.

∠DIJ and ∠JIC =180°


\sf \angle DIJ+ 107=180

Subtract 107 from both sides:


\sf \angle DIJ+107-107=180-107


\sf \angle DIJ=73

*Interior angles of a triangle always add up to 180*


\sf \angle JDI+\angle DIJ+\angle DJI=180^(\circ)


\sf 31^(\circ)+73^(\circ)+\angle DJI=180^(\circ)


\sf \angle DIJ=76^(\circ)

∠DJI and ∠x are vertical angles, therefore they are congruent.

∠x=76°
