Answer:

x = 30.

Explanation:

The angle next to the 60 degree angle = 180 - 60 = 120 degrees (adjacent angles are supplementary).

Let the angle just above 3x be y. The sum of 3x and y = 120 degrees (as opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal).

We have the following equations.

3x + y = 120............(1)

2x + 90 + y = 180

2x + y = 90.............(2)

Subtracting, (1) - (2):

x = 30.
