Answer:

x = 6

Explanation:

Line segment SU is a bisector of angle <TSV which means it divided the angle into two equal parts:

The measure of <TSV = 62 in this case the measure of <VSU = 62/2 = 31

we can write the following equation to find the value of x

5x + 1 = 31 subtract 1 from both sides

5x = 30 divide both sides by 5

x = 6
