Answer:

The measure of angle CKJ is 44°

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

m∠LKJ=m∠LKC+m∠CKJ ----> by addition angle postulate

substitute the given values

$131\°=(x+96)\°+(x+53)\°$

solve for x

$131=2x+149$

$2x=131-149$

$x=-9$

<em>Find the measure of angle CKJ</em>

m∠CKJ=(x+53)°

substitute the value of x

m∠CKJ=(-9+53)=44°
