Answer:

Angle x = 40°

Explanation:

All angles of any quadrilateral sum up to 360°.

So here, already measure of 3 angles are given.

So if we add up all angles + Angle x then it sums up to 360°.

So, the following steps will lead you to the answer:

73° + 157° + 90° + Angle x = 360°

(Now add up the measure of the three given angles)

320° + Angle x = 360°

(Now, through transposition moves 320° to the RHS) (Remember when transposing the signs change)

Angle x = 360° - 320°

Finally,

Angle x = 40°

Hope it helps!!!

  • x = 40°

Explanation:

This is a quadrilateral. A quadrilateral is a plane figure that has four sides or edges, and also has four corners or vertices.
