    The measure of the angles are 112 degrees and 68 degrees.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Two angles are supplementary if they add up to 180 degrees.

    The first angle is 8x degrees.

    The second angle is (4x+12) degrees.

    Therefore:

    8x+4x+12=180 degrees

    12x+12=180

    12x=180-12

    12x=168

    Divide both sides by 12

    x=14 degrees

    Substituting x in the given angles:

    8x = 8*14=112 degrees

    4x+12=4 (14) + 12=68 degrees

    Therefore, the measure of the angles are 112 degrees and 68 degrees.
