Answer:

The measurement of arc KL is [tex]8\°[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x--------> the measure of arc KL

y-------> the measure of arc MJ

we know that

The measurement of the outer angle is the semi-difference of the arcs it encompasses.

so

[tex]m<MEJ=\frac{1}{2}(y-x)[/tex]

we have

[tex]m<MEJ=16\°[/tex]

[tex]y=5x[/tex]

substitute the given value

[tex]16\°=\frac{1}{2}(5x-x)[/tex]

[tex]32\°=(4x)[/tex]

[tex]x=8\°[/tex]

therefore

The measurement of arc KL is [tex]8\°[/tex]
