Answer:

95°

Explanation:

1.

Find measure of angle R.

All triangles add up to 180°, so subtracting 2 of the given angles (P and Q) from 180° will find the last one R.

180° - 47° - 48° = 85°

angle R = 85°

2.

Notice parallel lines create interior angles.

AB is parallel to PR, so subtracting 180° from angle R will find x.

180° - 85° = 95°

angle x = 95°
