Answer:

[tex]x=82^{\circ}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can draw a perpendicular line through the two parallel lines to create a pentagon (there is an image attached in case you need to see where the line intersects the two parallel lines). Since the angle sum of a pentagon is [tex]540^{\circ}[/tex], we can solve for [tex]x[/tex].

[tex]x+140+138+90+90 = 540[/tex] (Angle sum of pentagon is [tex]540^{\circ}[/tex])

[tex]x+458=540[/tex] (collect like-terms)

[tex]x=82^{\circ}[/tex]

Hope this helps :)
