Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

we have to solve this equation, for \(x\): \(x+90+90+134=360\) please find the value of \(x\)

OpenStudy (homeworkhelp):

One second, I'll do that right now!

in a quadrilateral, the sum of interior angles has to be equal to \(180\) degrees

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Two connected tangents of a circle form an angle that along with the central angle, add up to 180 degrees. http://www.regentsprep.org/regents/math/geometry/gp15/circleangles.htm Agle O + x add up to 180 degrees.

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

oops.. I meant \(360\) degrees

OpenStudy (homeworkhelp):

134+180 would equal 314. 360-314 would be 46, correct?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

yes! correct!

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

correct !

OpenStudy (homeworkhelp):

Wonderful! Thank you so much for your help! This question was bothering me for such a long time, I really appreciate it! :)
