<u><em>Step 1</em></u>
We'll to isolate the variable, but to do that, get rid of the coefficient that multiplies it.
To do that, divide both sides by 22.
<em><u>Step 2.</u></em>
Now we have divided both sides by 22, but we'll need to reduce the fraction .
We can reduce the fraction by dividing the factors that are in the numerator and denominator.
That being said, 22 appears both in the numerator and denominator.
<u><em>Step 3</em></u>
Now, for , we'll need to reduce it to the lowest terms. Like in the 2nd step, we'll divide factors that are in the numerator and denominator.
That being said, 2 appears both in the numerator and denominator.
Hence, M = 5/11
Answer:
x = 70°
Step-by-step explanation:
Clockwise from top, call the three tangent points A, B, and C. Central angle AXC is the supplement of the marked external angle, so is 140°. Arc AB is bisected by the upper ray of angle x; and arc BC is bisected by the lower ray of angle x. That is to say x is half the measure of arc AC, so is 70°.

Attached is the output of a geometry program. The angle at lower left is 40° as in the given figure. The central angle α (70°) remains the same as tangent point C is moved around, which is to say that the measure of the angle α does not depend on the dimensions of the triangle containing α. It just depends on the fact that the triangle is tangent to the circle.
