To find the value of \( x \) in the context of square \( WXYZ \), it seems there may be a misunderstanding as the provided expressions \( 5x + 3 \) and \( 14x - 33 \) lack a clear relationship without additional information. Normally, in a square, the angles are all \( 90^\circ \).

If you're trying to set the two expressions equal to each other (perhaps they represent two angles or two sides related somehow), we would solve it as follows:

Set the expressions equal: \[ 5x + 3 = 14x - 33 \]

Now, solve for \( x \):

  1. Subtract \( 5x \) from both sides: \[ 3 = 9x - 33 \]

  2. Add \( 33 \) to both sides: \[ 36 = 9x \]

  3. Divide by \( 9 \): \[ x = 4 \]

So, the value of \( x \) would be \( 4 \). If there is a specific context or additional relationships between the figures, please provide more details for a more accurate answer.
