H
W
X = ?

Answer 1

x = 7°

Explanation:

Hello!

The sum of Angle FGW and Angle WGH is equal to Angle FGH.

Given the values provided, this means that: 3x + 5 + 150 = -6 + 26x

Solve for x

• 3x + 5 + 150 = -6 + 26x
• 3x + 155 = -6 + 26x
• 155 = - 6 + 23x
• 161 = 23x
• 7 = x

The value of x is 7°.
