Answer:

x = 23

Explanation:

Opposite angles are equal, so:

x + 115 = 6x

115 = 5x

x = 115/5

x = 23

Answer:

x = 23

Explanation:

Since AC and BD are straight lines four angles formed at the intersection. The opposite angles are equal to each other

So,

x + 115 = 6x

Switch sides

6x = x + 115

Subtract x from both sides

== . 6x - x = x -x + 115

==> 5x = 115

Divide by 5 both sides

==> 5x/5 = 115/5

==> x = 23

Check values for both angles and see if they equal each other

x + 115 = 23 + 115 = 138

6x = 6 x 23 = 138

So everything checks out
