Answer:
x = 22°
Explanation:
Between two parallel lines, the opposite inside angles will be congruent. So, x is equal to angle V. The sum of the angles of any triangle will be 180°. Therefore, you can find the value of x by setting all the angles of the triangle SRV equal to 180°.
S = 5x + 4
R = 44
V = x
S + R + V = 180 <----- General equation
(5x + 4) + 44 + x = 180 <----- Insert values
5x + 48 + x = 180 <----- Add 4 and 44
6x + 48 = 180 <----- Add 5x and x
6x = 132 <----- Subtract 48 from both sides
x = 22 <----- Divide both sides by 6
