Answer:

33°

Explanation:

1. All angles in any triangle add up to 180°, so 23° + 124° + x° = 180.

2. Now, let's solve that equation we just wrote!

Step 1: Combine like terms


  • (23 + 124) + (x) = 180

  • 147 + x = 180

Step 2: Subtract 147 from both sides.


  • 147 + x - 147 = 180 - 147

  • x = 33

Therefore, x = 33°!

Answer:


x=33^(\circ)

Explanation:

First off, your drawing is kinda inaccurate, because the
124^(\circ) looks like a right angle, but as you drew it yourself it doesn't matter too much.

We know that the sum of the angles of a triangle will always equal
180^(\circ), so we have that
23+124+x=180.

Combining like terms on the left side gives
147+x=180.

Subtracting
147 from both sides gives
x=33.

So,
\boxed{x=33^(\circ)} and we're done!
