Answer:

x = 140

Explanation:

Using the exterior angle rule ( an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the opposite interior angles of a triangle )

x is the interior angle and the given angles ( 50 and 90 ) are the opposite interior angles

So

x = 50 + 90

50 + 90 = 140

x = 140

Note: there is a right angle ( indicated by the little square. A right angle has a measure of 90 degrees so that's where the 90 came from)
