The correct Answer is:
To find the value of \( x \) in the given quadrilateral with angles \( (x + 20)^\circ \), \( (x - 20)^\circ \), \( (2x + 5)^\circ \), and \( (2x - 5)^\circ \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the equation for the sum of angles in a quadrilateral The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is always \( 360^\circ \). Therefore, we can set up the equation: \[ (x + 20) + (x - 20) + (2x + 5) + (2x - 5) = 360 \] ### Step 2: Simplify the equation Now, we will combine like terms in the equation: \[ x + 20 + x - 20 + 2x + 5 + 2x - 5 = 360 \] This simplifies to: \[ x + x + 2x + 2x + 20 - 20 + 5 - 5 = 360 \] Combining the \( x \) terms: \[ 6x + 0 = 360 \] So, we have: \[ 6x = 360 \] ### Step 3: Solve for \( x \) To find \( x \), divide both sides of the equation by 6: \[ x = \frac{360}{6} \] Calculating this gives: \[ x = 60 \] ### Final Answer The value of \( x \) is \( 60 \). ---
