Answer:

78° and 65°

Explanation:

(5)

The 2 angles lie on a straight line and sum to 180° , that is

x + 84 + x + 108 = 180

2x + 192 = 180 ( subtract 192 from both sides )

2x = - 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 6

Then

x + 84 = - 6 + 84 = 78°

(6)

the angle opposite 8x is 9x - 7 ( corresponding to the 9x - 7 )

So 8x and 9x - 7are vertical angles and congruent

9x - 7 = 8x ( subtract 8x from both sides )

x - 7 = 0 ( add 7 to both sides )

x = 7

Then

9x - 7 = 9(7) - 7 = 63 - 7 = 56°
