Answer: x = 120 degrees

Explanation:

The diagram is that of a polygon with 5 sides. This means that it is a Pentagon. The sum of the interior angles in a polygon is expressed as

180(n -2)

Where n represents the number of sides that the polygon has.

Since the given polygon has 5 sides, then the sum of the interior angles would be

180(5 - 2) = 180 × 3 = 540 degrees.

Therefore,

x + x + x + 90 + 90 = 540

3x + 180 = 540

3x = 540 - 180 = 360

x = 360/3 = 120 degrees
