ANSWER


x = 54\degree

Step-by-step explanation

The diameter meets the tangent to the circle at right angles.

The sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°.

This implies that


x + 36 \degree + 90 \degree = 180 \degree

Group the constant terms


x = 180 \degree - 36 \degree - 90 \degree

We simplify to obtain,


x = 54\degree
