Question
**Find the value of x:**

1. **Triangle Problem 13:**
   - A right triangle with two angles labeled.
   - One angle is \(3x^\circ\).
   - The other angle is \((5x - 14)^\circ\).

2. **Triangle Problem 14:**
   - A triangle with two angles labeled.
   - One angle is \((5x + 15)^\circ\).

3. **Triangle Problem 15:**
   - A right triangle with three angles labeled.
   - One angle is \(8x + 5\).
   - Another angle is \(2x + 11\).
   - The angle opposite the right angle is \(3x\).

4. **Quadrilateral Problem 16:**
   - A parallelogram with internal angles labeled.
   - One angle is \(40^\circ\).
   - The angle consecutive to it is \(4x^\circ\).
   - The other angle is labeled as \(3x^\circ\).

5. **Triangle Problem 17:**
   - A triangle with two angles labeled.
   - One angle is \(70^\circ\).
   - The other angle is \((3x - 10)^\circ\).

6. **Isosceles Triangle Problem 18:**
   - An isosceles triangle with one angle labeled.
   - One angle is \(51^\circ\).
   - The other equal angles are labeled as \(x^\circ\).

**Instructions:** 
Solve for \(x\) in each configuration using appropriate geometric principles.
