Answer:

x = 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

The other 2 opposite angle are both equal to 70 degrees.

So 5x = 70

x = 70/5

= 14 degrees.

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a quadrilateral has congruent side lengths. It means the quadrilateral is either square of rhombus.

Each interior angles of a square is a right angle.

2 opposite angles have measures of 100 degrees. The other 2 opposite angles have measures of 70 degrees and (5 x) degrees.

Since the interior angles of the given quadrilateral are not right angles, therefore it must be a rhombus.

Opposite angles of a rhombus are congruent.

$5x=70$

Divide both sides by 5.

$x=\frac{70}{5}$

$x=14$

The value of x is 14.

Therefore, the correct option is A.
