The easy way to think about this is what number comes between 5 and 7? The answer is 6 (but we have to consider that it's negative in this case.) So the answer is -6 Another way to look at it is with a number line (not to "Which number is greater than -7 and less than -5"? scale.)<===(-7)==(-6)==(-5)==(-3)==(-2)==(-1)==(0)==(1)==>Notice how -6 comes between the two numbers. -6 is larger than -7 (it's "less negative" -- "Which number is greater than -7 and less than -5"? closer to zero) -6 is less than -5 (it's "more negative" -- further away from zero)

Answer:
- angle SVR = 30°
- angle PVR = 90°
- angle SVQ = 60°
- angle SVP = 120°
- angle RVQ = 30°
Step-by-step explanation:
As with finding distances on a number line, the easiest way is to subtract the smaller coordinate from the larger. Here, the "number line" is the arc at the edge of the protractor. The corresponding coordinates are ...
S: 40°
R: 70°
Q: 100°
P: 160°
The measure of an angle with its vertex at V will be the difference between the "coordinates" of the endpoints of the arc it intercepts. That is ...
m∠SVR = "R" - "S" = 70° -40° = 30°
The other angles are found the same way:
m∠PVR = 160° -70° = 90°
m∠SVQ = 100° -40° = 60°
m∠SVP = 160° -40° = 120°
m∠RVQ = 100° -70° = 30°
