Answer: x = 127 degrees

Step-by-step explanation: The figure shown is an irregular polygon with six sides. Being an irregular polygon, not all interior angles have equal measurement. Nonetheless, the sum of the interior angles of a polygon is given as;

Sum of angles = (n - 2) x 180

Where n equals to the number of sides. Hence for a six sided polygon, the sum of the interior angles equals

Sum of angles = (n - 2) x 180

Sum of angles = (6 - 2) x 180

Sum of angles = 4x 180

Sum of angles = 720.

Adding up all the interior angles, we now have,

112 + 133 + 128 + 100 + 120 + x = 720

593 + x = 720

Subtract 593 from both sides of the equation

x = 127
