To find the measure of the second angle, we need to solve for X. Since the two angles are on a straight line, their sum should be 180 degrees.
So, 5X - 28 + 8X = 180.
Combining like terms, we get 13X - 28 = 180.
Adding 28 to both sides, we get 13X = 208.
Dividing both sides by 13, we get X = 16.
Now we can substitute the value of X back into 8X to find the measure of the second angle.
8 * 16 = 128.
Therefore, the measure of the second angle is 128 degrees.
The answer is 128.
So, 5X - 28 + 8X = 180.
Combining like terms, we get 13X - 28 = 180.
Adding 28 to both sides, we get 13X = 208.
Dividing both sides by 13, we get X = 16.
Now we can substitute the value of X back into 8X to find the measure of the second angle.
8 * 16 = 128.
Therefore, the measure of the second angle is 128 degrees.
The answer is 128.
