Answer:

x = 45°

Explanation:

The triangle interior angle at I will be the supplement of the angle marked 2x. The triangle interior angle at G will be equal to x, the alternate interior angle with respect to transversal GI crossing the parallel lines.

The angle marked 3x is the sum of these "remote" interior angles:

3x = 180 -2x +x

4x = 180 . . . . . . . . . add x; next, divide by 4

x = 180/4 = 45 . . . . . degrees

x = 45°
