Answer:

x = 65°

Explanation:

Naming the sides of the parallelogram formed ABCD as shown in the attached image to this solution.

Angle A = 2x (vertically opposite angles are equal)

Angle A = Angle C (opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal)

Angle A = Angle C = 2x

(Angle C) + 50° = 180° (Sum of angles on a straight line is 180°)

2x + 50° = 180°

2x = 180° - 50° = 130°

x = (130°/2) = 65°

Hope this Helps!!!
