Answer:

x = 125°

Explanation:

There are 7 angles in this shape. The sum of the angles in a shape like this is calculated using a formula.

Total of angles

= (n - 2)•180°

Put in 7, because there are 7 angles.

= (7 - 2)•180°

= 5•180°

= 900°

So the total of the angles should be 900°. We know all of the angles except one.

900° = 123°+129°+128°+128°+132°+135°+ x

900° = 775° + x

Subtract 775.

125° = x

The missing angle is 125°.
