Answer:

x = 64

Explanation:

The given polygon is a quadrilateral — a closed figure with 4 sides. We know that the measures of the interior angles of a quadrilateral sum to 360º (e.g., the measures of a rectangle's four angles: 90º + 90º + 90º + 90º = 360º). Using this information, we can construct an equation with xº and the rest of the angle measures given in the diagram.

xº + 100º + 130º + 66º = 360º

To solve this equation, we can subtract (100 + 130 + 66)º from both sides.

xº = 360º - (100 + 130 + 66)º

xº = 360º - 296º

xº = 64º

x = 64
