Math Problem Statement

Angles around a point sum to 360 degrees

Solution

To determine the size of angle xx in the provided image, we use the fact that the sum of the angles around a point is 360 degrees.

Given:

  • One of the angles around the point is 150150^\circ.
  • The remaining angle is xx.

Since the sum of angles around a point is 360 degrees, we can write the equation:

x+150=360x + 150^\circ = 360^\circ

Solving for xx:

x=360150=210x = 360^\circ - 150^\circ = 210^\circ

Therefore, the size of angle xx is 210210^\circ.
