can someone help me to find x in the following graph? Thanks in advance

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is the answer x =18. If yes, I shall help you in getting this answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dunno what the answer is. But tell me what is your procedure, please

OpenStudy (anonymous):

AB and ED are parallel?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think so, that is all the data i received. Looks like yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is there a context to this problem like... AB and ED are walls of a building ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can walk around a polygon in 360 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A convex polygon

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you mean by that. I dont get it sorry. Just learning this new staff for me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that question for @estudier , or me?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

studier

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The sum of the exterior angles of a convex polygon is 360 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You mean that I must close the poligon through A and E?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I guess it would be easier to visualize then (close at 90 degrees)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you help me through skype. I am new with this stuff, please

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Others may also have interest in the solution, we should keep going here.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dont know much about it my friend

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You know that supplementary angles sum to 180?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the angle exterior to 115 is 180-115 or 65

OpenStudy (anonymous):

agree :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and the angle you have to find is opposite to the fifth such angle of polygon ABCDE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

got it now mate. Finally, thank you soooo much

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a "best answer" for U

OpenStudy (anonymous):
