Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall: according to the exterior angle theorem of a triangle, the sum of two interior angles equals the measure of the exterior angle it is opposite to.

m<MNO = (5x + 2)° => exterior angle of ∆LMN

m<NLM = (x + 10)° => interior angle of ∆LMN

m<LMN = (x + 16)° => interior angle of ∆LMN

Therefore:

m<MNO = m<NLM + m<LMN (exterior angle theorem of triangle)

Substitute

5x + 2 = x + 10 + x + 16

Add like terms

5x + 2 = 2x + 26

Collect like terms

5x - 2x = -2 + 26

3x = 24

Divide not sides by 3

x = 24/3

x = 8
