Answers:

x = 19

angle M = 68 degrees

Step-by-step explanation

Vertical angles are always congruent.

angle M = angle O

4x-8 = 3x+11

4x-3x = 11+8

x = 19

Use this value of x to find angle M.

angle M = 4x-8 = 4*19-8 = 68 degrees

As a check, let's find angle O as well.

angle O = 3x+11 = 3*19+11 = 68

The answers are confirmed.
