Answer:

x=30

MO bisects LMN

so LMO = NMO

then LMO+NMO=LMN

Answer:

x = 30, and the measure of NMO is 64°

Explanation:

Since MO bisects LMN, it follows that LMO is congruent to NMO, and the measure of LMN is twice the measure of LMO and of NMO. So we have:


5x - 22 = 2(x + 34)


5x - 22 = 2x + 68


3x = 90


x = 30

So the measure of NMO is equal to the measure of LMO:


30 + 34 = 64

LMO and NMO are 64°.
