Answer: the value of x is 27.

Step-by-step explanation:A triangle's total number of angles is 180. So, we may formulate the equation as follows:

118 + (2x + 8) = 180

118 + 2x + 8 = 180 is the result of simplifying the right side of the equation.

Combining related terms, we arrive at: 2x + 126 = 180

We obtain 2x = 54 by deducting 126 from both sides of the equation.

The result of multiplying both sides of the equation by 2 is x = 27.
