The sum of the interior angles of the figure is 360°, it means that we can formulate the following equation:

(2x+20)° + (3x - 10)° + (2x)° + (2x - 10)° = 360

Then, solving for x, we get:

2x + 20 + 3x - 10 + 2x + 2x - 10 = 360

9x = 360

x = 360/9

x = 40

So, the measure of each interior angle is:

(2x + 20)° = 2*40 + 20 = 100°

(3x - 10)° = 3*40 - 10 = 110°

(2x)° = 2*40 = 80°

(2x - 10)° = 2*40 - 10 = 70°

Answer: 100°

110°

80°

70°
