11x + 7x = 180

When solved, x = 10.
Plug in the x to find the angle measurements

For this case we have that the sum of the internal angles of a quadrilateral is 360 degrees.

As we are told that the pairs of sides are congruent we have:


7x + 11x + 7x + 11x = 360\\36x = 360\\x = \frac {360} {36}\\x = 10

So, x = 10.

So:


7x = 7 (10) = 70 \ degrees\\11x = 11 (10) = 110 \ degrees

Answer:


x = 10
