What is the measure of angle X?

Explanation:

Focus on triangle BDH

Interior angles B and D are given to be 40 and 31 respectively. Interior angle H is unknown

For any triangle, the interior angles always add to 180

B+D+H = 180

40+31+H = 180

H+71 = 180

H = 180-71

H = 109

Interior angle H is 109 degrees for triangle BDH

The exterior angle is 180 minus this measure

exterior angle = 180 - (interior angle)

exterior angle = 180 - 109

exterior angle = 71

Note how this is the sum of interior angles B and D, so you could use the remote interior angle theorem here.

The Answer is A
