1. **State the problem:** We have a seven-sided polygon (heptagon) with six known interior angles: 117°, 101°, 138°, 110°, 123°, and one unknown angle $x$. We need to find the value of $x$.
2. **Formula used:** The sum of interior angles of an $n$-sided polygon is given by:
$$\text{Sum of interior angles} = (n-2) \times 180^\circ$$
For a heptagon, $n=7$, so:
$$\text{Sum} = (7-2) \times 180 = 5 \times 180 = 900^\circ$$
3. **Calculate the sum of known angles:**
$$117 + 101 + 138 + 110 + 123 = 589^\circ$$
4. **Find the unknown angle $x$:**
Since the polygon has seven sides, there are seven interior angles. We know six of them (including the right angle, which is 90°), so the sum of all seven angles is 900°.
Add the right angle:
$$589 + 90 = 679^\circ$$
Then,
$$x = 900 - 679 = 221^\circ$$
5. **Interpretation:** The unknown angle $x$ measures 221°, which is possible in a concave polygon where some interior angles can be greater than 180°.
**Final answer:**
$$x = 221^\circ$$
