help me out thanks!

This image presents a quadrilateral with four interior angles. The angles are labeled as follows: \(60^\circ\), \(91^\circ\), \(120^\circ\), and \(x\). The problem asks you to solve for \(x\).

To find the value of \(x\), you can use the fact that the sum of interior angles in a quadrilateral is \(360^\circ\). 

The equation to solve is:

\[
60^\circ + 91^\circ + 120^\circ + x = 360^\circ
\]

Combine the known angles:

\[ 
60 + 91 + 120 = 271 
\]

Then, subtract from 360 to find \(x\):

\[ 
x = 360 - 271 = 89^\circ 
\]

So, \(x = 89^\circ\).
