Answer:

x = 47°

Explanation:

First see that Angle W is 90°. Either because T is the center and LS is a diameter. Or because Arc LCS is 180° so Angle W is half that = 90°

Then, see Triangle WSL. The angles in a triangle add up to 180°

90° + x + x-4 = 180°

Subtract 90°

x + x - 4 = 90

Combine the x's

2x - 4 = 90

Add 4

2x = 94

Divide by 2.

x = 47
