    M∠THX = 65°.

    Since HX is an angle bisector, m∠THX = m∠XHV.

    6x+5=8x-15

    We can't have a variable on both sides of the equation, so we cancel 6x by subtracting it from both sides:

    6x+5-6x=8x-15-6x

    5=2x-15

    Cancel 15 by adding to both sides:

    5+15=2x-15+15

    20=2x

    Cancel 2 by dividing both sides by 2:

    20/2 = 2x/2

    10=x

    Substitute this into the expression for ∠THX:

    6x+5=6 (10) + 5=65
