![**Find the measure of ∠x.**
The diagram shows two intersecting lines forming several angles.
- One angle is marked as 139°.
- Another angle adjacent to it is marked as 34°.
- The angle we need to find is labeled as ∠x.
**Explanation of Diagram:**
The diagram consists of two lines that cross each other, creating intersecting angles. The given angles are 139° and 34°, and these angles are adjacent and form a linear pair with the angle ∠x.
**Calculation:**
To find the measure of ∠x, note that linear pairs of angles sum up to 180°. Therefore, we can use the following equation:
- m∠x = 180° - (139° + 34°)
Simplify the calculation to find the measurement.
**Answer Box:**
\[ m \angle x = \_\_ \degree \]](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F650de560-62be-48a6-a2a1-8846c427d09e%2F4d762af7-e4ba-4a81-b998-7e99174d89e9%2Fdg7wt7m_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
