Answer:

Angle WHG is 85 degrees.

Explanation:

X = 11.

7(11) + 8 = 85.

180 - 85 = 95 (Angle FHG.)
3(11) - 9 = 24 (Angle GFH.)
A triangle's angles always add up to 180 degrees.

24 + 95 + 61 = 180.
To double check, 180 - 95 = 85 degrees.

I hope this helped! And as for finding X, I kind of forgot how to get X, so I tried X being number 5-10 first, then tried 11, and it worked. Sorry for the late response.

Answer:

85

Explanation:

There is a property of angle of triangles.

Exterior angle = Sum of opposite interior angles

7x + 8 = 3x - 9 + 61

7x + 8 = 3x + 52

7x - 3x = 52 - 8

4x = 44

x = 44/4

x = 11

m∠WHG = 7x + 8

= 7 ( 11 ) + 8

= 77 + 8

m∠WHG = 85
