Answer:

m∠5 = 112

Explanation:

The angles 2 and 5 are supplementary; therefore,

[tex]m\measuredangle2+m\measuredangle5=180^o[/tex][tex](x+38)+(3x+22)=180^o[/tex]

which simplifies to give

[tex]4x+60=180[/tex]

subtracting 60 from both sides gives

[tex]4x=120[/tex]

Finally, dividing both sides by 4 gives

[tex]x=30[/tex]

With the value of x in hand, we now find the value of angle 5.

[tex]\begin{gathered} m\measuredangle5=3x+22 \\ m\measuredangle5=3(30)+22 \\ m\measuredangle5=112 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the measure of angle 5 is 112 degrees.
