B) 19

C) 8

D) Can't be determined

Answer 1

X = 20.25°

Explanation:

Interior angle of the same side are suplementery which means their sum is equal to 180° .

So 38° +( 8x - 26°) = 180°

12° + 8x = 180° .... Simplify 38 and 26

8x = 180°- 12° .... taking 12 to the left side it

change the sighn to -ve

8x = 162° .... simplify

8x/8 = 162°/8 .... dividing both side 8

x = 20.25°
