The diagram shows that the two angles are supplementary, which means that their measures add up to 180 degrees.
So, we have:
128 + 5x = 180
Subtract 128 from both sides:
5x = 52
Divide by 5:
x = 10.4
Therefore, the measure of the angle on the other side is 5(10.4) = 52 degrees.
Consider the diagram of supplementary angles
