Answer:

(B) 30

Explanation:

Imagine you drew a line from Point T until it touched Line PR. Let's call that point where it touched Line PR "Point Z".

That line (called Line TZ) would be perpendicular to PR, forming a 90 degree angle.

Now, TZW is a triangle.

To find x, we need to find the angle measurment of Angle ZTW.

This is where we use the hexagon.

A hexagon's interior angle sum is 720, meaning each interior angle is equal to 120 degrees. So Angle UTS would equal 120 degrees.

However, Line TZ bisects that 120 degree angle, so Angle ZTW would equal 60 degrees (because 120/2 = 60).

Now we have two angles of the triangle: 90 & 60.

A triangle's interior angle sum is 180.

Add 90 & 60, which is 150, and subtract 150 from 180.

The result is 30, which is the angle measurement of x.

Hope it helps (●'◡'●)
