Answer 1

To solve for the measure of the second angle, set the two angles equal to each other:

(5x-28)° = 8x°

Now, solve for x:

5x-28 = 8x

-28 = 3x

x = -28/3

Now substitute this value of x back into the second angle's equation to find its measure:

8x = 8(-28/3)

8x = -224/3

So, the measure of the second angle is -224/3 degrees.

Answer 2

not an option

Answer 3

Apologies for the previous incorrect response.

To solve for the measure of the second angle, set the two angles equal to each other:

(5x-28)° = (8x)°

Now, solve for x:

5x - 28 = 8x

Subtract 5x from both sides:

-28 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3:

x = -28/3

Now substitute this value of x back into the second angle's equation to find its measure:

8x = 8 * (-28/3)

8x = -224/3

So, the measure of the second angle is -224/3 degrees.

Answer 4

NO ! chose 16% - 120% 128% or 52%

Answer 5

Apologies for the confusion. Let's solve the equation correctly this time.

To solve the equation, we set the two angles equal to each other:

(5x-28)° = (8x)°

Now, solve for x:

5x - 28 = 8x

Subtract 5x from both sides:

-28 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3:

x = -28/3

Now substitute this value of x back into the second angle's equation to find its measure:

8x = 8 * (-28/3)

8x = -224/3

Simplifying further:

8x = -224/3

x = (-224/3) / 8

x = -224/24

x = -28/3

Now substitute the value of x back into the second angle's equation:

8x = 8 * (-28/3)

8x = -224/3

So, the measure of the second angle is -224/3 degrees. However, none of the given options (16°, 120°, 128°, or 52°) match this answer.

Answer 6

ok if you had to choose 1 of them which would best fit the problem.

Answer 7

Given the options provided, the best fitting answer would be 120°.
