    We are given that the measure of one acute angle is 5 times the measure of the other acute angle.

    Let us assume the measure of the other acute angle = x degree.

    First acute angle is 5 times the other, that is = 5x degrees.

    Both angles are making a right angle.

    A right angle sum upto 90 degrees.

    Therefore,

    x+5x = 90.

    6x = 90.

    Dividing both sides by 6, we get

    x = 15.

    Therefore, other acute angle = 15° and one angle measure = 5 times of 15 that is 75°
