Answer:

x = 50°

Explanation:

- the angle at the top is shown as a right angle so it is 90°

-the 140° angle and the angle next to it are 180° together so let's name the other angle z

z+140=180

z=180-140=40°

- a triangle's angles in total have 180°

x+y+z= 180°

x+90°+40°=180°

x+130 =180

x= 180-130 = 50°

Answer:

50

Explanation:

Since 140° is on the outside, the angle next to it would be 40°.

Also a triangle = 180°

40° + 90° = 130°

180° - 130° = 50°

Thus meaning x = 50°
