Answer:
x = 8
Explanation:
the opposite angles LMN and JPN are congruent , then
∠ LPM and ∠ LMP are congruent , so
7x + 2 = 58 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
7x = 56 ( divide both sides by 7 )
x=15
So I could be wrong because I haven't done these in a long time but...
To solve you set these values equal to 180 degrees because the inside of a triangle= 180.
I know this shape isn't a triangle but the angle we're solving for (Lmp and Lpm) is a triangle.
so you do 8x (because there's an extra x in PLM the corner all the way on the left)
8x+58+2=180
8x+60=180
8x=120
divide on both sides
120/8= 15
