\huge\boxed{Hi\;there!}

Here's something you should remember:


\bigstar Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees.


\bigstar Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees.

Here, we have two supplementary angles. Their measures are:

133 and x.

We know that supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees, so all we have to do is solve this equation for the unknown variable, x:

x+133=180

We subtract 133 from
\bold{BOTH} sides:

x=180-133

x=47 degrees


\huge\boxed{\boxed{\sf{Answer: \;47\;degrees\;:)}}}

Answer:


\boxed{\tt x=47^(\circ)}

Explanation:

From the given diagram, we can see that ∠MON and ∠LOM are supplementary angles.

*Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 180° *

m∠LOM+m∠MON=180°


\tt x+133=180

Subtract 133 from both sides:


\longmapsto\tt x+133-133=180-133


\longmapsto \tt x=47^(\circ)
