We are asked to find the size of angle $x$ in the given diagram. The diagram shows a straight line, and two other lines intersecting at a point on it. The angle between one of these lines and the straight line is $20^{\circ}$, and the angle between the other line and the straight line is $65^{\circ}$. The angle $x$ is the angle between these two lines.

1. Problem Description

We are asked to find the size of angle xx in the given diagram. The diagram shows a straight line, and two other lines intersecting at a point on it. The angle between one of these lines and the straight line is 2020^{\circ}, and the angle between the other line and the straight line is 6565^{\circ}. The angle xx is the angle between these two lines.

2. Solution Steps

Since the angles lie on a straight line, the sum of the angles on one side of the straight line is 180180^{\circ}. The angle xx along with the two given angles, 2020^{\circ} and 6565^{\circ} add up to 180180^{\circ}.
We can write the equation:
x+20+65=180x + 20^{\circ} + 65^{\circ} = 180^{\circ}
Combining the known angles:
x+85=180x + 85^{\circ} = 180^{\circ}
Subtracting 8585^{\circ} from both sides of the equation gives us the value of xx:
x=18085x = 180^{\circ} - 85^{\circ}
x=95x = 95^{\circ}

3. Final Answer

x=95x = 95^{\circ}
