Answer:

103

Explanation:

The sum of internal angles in a pentagon is 540 degrees. But in this case, it is also 10x+ (11x+7) + (10x + 3) + 14x + 8x. We get the equation:


10x+ (11x+7) + (10x + 3) + 14x + 8x = 540


53x + 10 = 540


53x = 530


x = 10

We have found x. Now we need to find the measure of angle s:


m\angle S = 10x + 3 = 100 + 3 = 103

We can also test out the value of x to make sure that it is correct:


m\angle Q + m\angle R + m\angle S + m\angle T + m\angle U =


= 10x + (11x + 7) + (10x + 3) + 14x + 8x =


= 100 + (110 + 7) + (100 + 3) + 140 + 80 =


= 100 + 117 + 103 + 140 + 80 =


540
