Answer:

x=65

Explanation:

triangle with angle a is isosceles triangle

this means that the other 2 angles within the triangle on the left (triangle with angle a) are the same.

so if a=44

the other two angles would equal


(180-44)/(2) = 68

the angle on the right of angle a, is opposite angles with the left corner of the traingle with angle x.

rule: opposite angles are equal

thus, that angle is also equal to 68

for the triangle with angle b, it is also an isosceles

if B = 47

then the other angle is also 47, we can ignore the tip of the triangle because we do not need it to find x.

since b is opposite angles with the right corner of triangle with angle x then

that angle also equals 47

now we know two angles of the triangle with angle x

thus to find x

180-47-68 = 65
