Exterior angle = Sum of its interior opposite angles ( exterior angle property )

Which means :-

[tex]7x - 1 + 63 = 14x - 8[/tex]

[tex]7x + ( - 1) + 63 = 14x - 8[/tex]

[tex]7x + 62 = 14x - 8[/tex]

[tex]7x + 62 - 14x = ( - 8)[/tex]

[tex]- 7x + 62 = ( - 8)[/tex]

[tex]- 7x = - 8 - 62[/tex]

[tex] - 7x = ( - 70)[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{ - 70}{ - 7} [/tex]

[tex]\color{hotpink} x = 10 [/tex]

Then :-

1) ∠ 7x - 1

= 7 × 10 - 1

= 70 - 1

= 69°

2) ∠14x - 8

= 14 × 10 - 8

= 140 - 8

= 132°

As the sum of interior opposite angles of this triangle is equivalent to the value of the exterior angle (69+63=132), we can conclude that we have found out the correct value of x .

Therefore , the value of x = 10 .
