Answer:

  • x = 127°

--------------------------------

The formed quadrilateral has two right angles, because of tangent segments.

One angle is marked as 53°, and the missing angle is x.

We know the sum of interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.

Find the missing angle:

  • x + 53 + 180 = 360
  • x + 233 = 360
  • x = 360 - 233
  • x = 127
