1. Problem Description

The problem asks for the size of angle xx given that the angles 3030^\circ, xx, and 5555^\circ form a straight line.

2. Solution Steps

A straight line has a total angle of 180180^\circ. Since the three angles form a straight line, their sum is 180180^\circ.
30+x+55=18030^\circ + x + 55^\circ = 180^\circ
Combine the known angles:
85+x=18085^\circ + x = 180^\circ
Subtract 8585^\circ from both sides to solve for xx:
x=18085x = 180^\circ - 85^\circ
x=95x = 95^\circ

3. Final Answer

9595^\circ
