Answer:

31 degrees

Explanation:

1. since angle x and angle y are congruent, and segment xw and segment yw are congruent, you can assume that angle xzw and angle wzy are also congruent.

2. set angle xzw and angle wzy equal to each other

8x-1 = 5x+11

3. combine like terms

3x = 12

4. simplify to find the value of x

x = 4

5. plug x into the equation to find the degree of angle wzy

5(4)+11

20+11

=31 degrees
