In the diagram, the centre of the circle is O.O. The area of the shaded region is 20%20\% of the area of the circle. What is the value of $x?$ [asy] filldraw(Circle((0,0),1),gray(0.8),linewidth(1)); filldraw((cos(pi/5),sin(pi/5))--(0,0)--(cos(-pi/5),sin(-pi/5))..(-1,0)..cycle,white,linewidth(1)); label("OO", (0,0), W); label("x∘x^\circ", (0.1,0), E); [/asy]
