since this is a trapezoid, there will be two parallel sides.

take a look at the given picture
which two sides seem parallel to you ?

becca9898 · Answer

The top line and the bottom line look parallel to me

ganeshie8 · Answer

Yes, and notice that the given angles are the interior angles of a transversal cutting two parallel sides

ganeshie8 · Answer

so they must add up to 180

ganeshie8 · Answer

(4x - 8) + 100 = 180

you can solve x
