Answer:

  • 138°
  • 42°

Explanation:

Angle WXY and YXZ form a supplementary angle. This is when two angls add up to be 180°.

We can write an equation and solve for x.

8x - 14 + 2x + 4 = 180

~Combine like terms

10x - 10 = 180

~Add 10 to both sides

10x = 190

~Divide 10 to both sides

x = 19

Find both angles.

8x - 14

8(19) - 14

152 - 14

138

2x + 4

2(19) + 4

38 + 4

42

Best of Luck!
