I don’t have the diagrams or the full text for each question, so I can’t be certain which angles are equal or supplementary. Could you upload the image or paste the missing information (the angle expressions shown in the diagram and how the angles are positioned)?

Meanwhile, if the two expressions "(x + 16)" and "(4x − 5)" are the two angles mentioned, here are the three usual possibilities and the algebra for each so you can see which applies:

- If they are vertical angles (congruent):
x + 16 = 4x − 5
21 = 3x → x = 7
Angle measure = x + 16 = 23° (or 4x − 5 = 23°)

- If they are a linear pair (supplementary, sum to 180°):
(x + 16) + (4x − 5) = 180
5x + 11 = 180 → 5x = 169 → x = 169/5 = 33.8
Angle measures = 49.8° and 130.2° (approx.)

- If they are complementary (sum to 90°):
(x + 16) + (4x − 5) = 90
5x + 11 = 90 → 5x = 79 → x = 79/5 = 15.8
Angle measures = 31.8° and 63.2° (approx.)

For Question 1 I need the angle expressions shown in that specific diagram to solve for x and pick from {33, 55, 77, 99}.

For Question 2 I need to know which expression corresponds to ∠A and whether the two labeled angles are vertical, supplementary, etc. Once you send the diagram or specify those details I’ll solve both questions and give the correct multiple‑choice answers.
