Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: WE KNOW THAT,

THE SUM OF THE ADJACENT ANGLE OF THE PARALLELOGRAM IS 180.

SO 4X+22+X-42=180

5X-20=180

5X=200

X=40

Answer:

x = 40

Explanation:

the adjacent angles of a parallelogram sum to 180° , then

4x + 22 + x - 42 = 180

5x - 20 = 180 ( add 20 to both sides )

5x = 200 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 40
