    Answer: X equals 8.

    Step-by-step explanation: The polygon in the question has 5 sides. However, it is an irregular polygon hence the sides are given as 62 degrees, 66 degrees, 77 degrees, 59 degrees and 12X degrees.

    The size of the exterior angle of a polygon is calculated as

    Angle = 360/n

    Where n is the number of sides. So for a five sided polygon, the size of the exterior angle is calculated as

    360/5 which equals 72. Since it is an irregular polygon, the sum of the exterior angles can be expressed as

    62 + 66 + 77 + 59 + 12X = 360

    264 + 12X = 360

    Subtract 264 from both sides of the equation

    12X = 96

    Divide both sides of the equation by 12

    X = 8
