a) The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180^\circ, then

x+3x+76=180
4x=180-76
x=104/4=26.

b) This is an isosceles triangle then the missing angle is x because correspond to the same side. I apply again the rule of the angles writing

x+4x+x=180
6x=160
x=160/6=26.\bar{6}.

c) The sum of the angles of a quadrilateral is 360^\circ, then

x+2x+4x+66=360
7x=360-66
x=294/7=42.

d) We solve as the problem a).

x+2x+57=180
3x=180-57
x=123/3=41

e) This is a parallelogram so the opposite angles are equal and the sum, as in the problem c) is 360^\circ, then

9x+6x+9x+6x=360
30x=360
x=360/30=12.

f) The problem is the same as problem a) but we have one external angle instead of the internal. We know that the sum between internal and external angle is 180^\circ, then the internal angle is 180-108=72. We can now proceed as in the exercise a)

72+3x+x-4=180
4x+68=180
4x=180-68
x=112/4=28.

g) We solve as the problem c)

2x+x-30+x-8+66=360
4x+28=360
4x=360-28
x=332/4=83.

h) This is a parallelogram so the opposite angles are has to be equal.

2x+40=5x+25
3x=15
x=3.

i) We solve as the problem a)

3x+30+x+60+6x-10=180
10x+80=180
10x=180-80
x=100/10=10.

j) This is an isosceles triangle, then the two angles has to be equal.

2x+16=3x+9
x=16-9=7.
