Answer:

m∠1 = 147°

Explanation:

(5x-2)° and ∠1 are supplementary to each other, which means they add up to 180°. However, we don't know the measure of ∠1. So, we need to solve for x to figure out angle (5x-2)°'s measure. Therefore:

(8x+1)°+(5x-2)°+90°=180°

8x+1+5x-2+90=180

13x+89=180

13x=91

x=7

This means the measure of angle (5x-2)° is 33°, making the measure of ∠1 equal to 147°.
