Answer:

x = 8

Explanation:

This question tests on the concept of angle properties and possibly solving equations.

Lets first find Angle FHG in terms of x.

FHG + 80 + (x + 12) = 180 (Sum of Angles in a triangle)

FHG = 180 - 80 - 12 - x = 88 - x

Now we also know another property:

Angle AHG + FHG = 180 (Sum of Angles on a straight line)

Now we can substitute both angles to find x.

11x + 12 + (88 - x) = 180

11x + 12 + 88 - x = 180

10x + 100 = 180

10x = 180 - 100

10x = 80

x = 80 ÷ 10 = 8
