Solve for x in the following figure.

x = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

All angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

First, find the angle J:

60+40 = 100, J = 80 because 100+80= 180 degrees.

Now, the two angles on either side of J should also equal 180 degrees. We know that the inner angle is equal to 80 degrees. Thus, the outside angle must equal 100.

x + 20 = 100

x = 80 degrees.
