The missing variable x is: x = 7

The angle 1 is: ∠1 = 96°

How to find the missing angle?

We are given the angles:

m∠F.KH = (5x + 5)°

m∠KHF = (13x - 7)°

m∠HF.K = (6x + 14)°

Sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. Thus:

(5x + 5)° + (13x - 7)° + (6x + 14)° = 180

24x + 12 = 180

24x = 180 - 12

24x = 168

x = 168/24

x = 7

m∠KHF = (13(7) - 7)°

m∠KHF = 84°

∠1 = 180 - 84

∠1 = 96°
