All quadrilaterals (regardless if they are inscribed in a circle or not) have their angles add to 360 degrees.


Angle1 + Angle2 + Angle3 + Angle4 = 360


100+70+2x+x = 360


3x+170 = 360


3x = 360-170


3x = 190


x = 190/3


The answer as a fraction is x = 190/3


The answer as a decimal approximation is x = 63.33333 (this is approximate, the 3's after the decimal point go on forever)
