Answer:

(1/3)x+ x-20+ x-10+40= 360

Explanation:

(1/3)x+ x-20+ x-10+40= 360

x+3x-60+3x-30+120=360*3

7x+30= 1080

7x= 1050

x= 150

The sum of the angles = 360.

Add the 4 angles together so they equal 360:

1/3x + x-20 + x-10 + 40 = 360

Combine like terms:

2 1/3x - 30 + 40 = 360

Continue combining like terms:

2 1/3x +10 = 360

Subtract 10 from both sides:

2 1/3x = 350

Divide both sides by 2 1/3:

x = 150
