Answer:

X=58 degrees

Explanation:

So We can start by finding the angle thats supplementary to 109.

Well 109 and another unknown angle (which will be Y for this scenario) would form a straight line which is 180 degrees.

109+y=180

Solve that by isolating the y and you would get 71 as the missing side.

Now we have 2 sides, 71 and 51. We’re trying to find x or the angle vertical to the thrid interior angle of the triangle.

Vertical is basically equal so we really just gotta find the third side. A triangle is equal to 180 degrees and if you add em up.

71+51+x=180

Combine like terms

122+x=180

Isolate the X

x=58

So x is 58 degrees.
