### Problem 1:
# Explanation:
## Step1: Identify angle relationship (alternate interior angles)
The 31° angle and angle $ b $ are alternate interior angles, so they are equal.
## Step2: Determine measure of $ b $
Since alternate interior angles are equal, $ b = 31^\circ $.

### Problem 2:
# Explanation:
## Step1: Identify angle relationship (corresponding angles or vertical angles)
The 77° angle and angle $ b $ are either corresponding angles (if lines are parallel) or vertical angles, so they are equal. Wait, actually, if we consider the transversal, the angle adjacent to 77° and $ b $: Wait, no, looking at the diagram, the 77° and $ b $ – actually, if the lines are parallel, the angle $ b $ and 77°: Wait, maybe it's a vertical angle or supplementary? Wait, no, let's re-examine. Wait, the angle given is 77°, and $ b $ – if the lines are parallel, the angle $ b $ and 77°: Wait, maybe it's a vertical angle. Wait, no, maybe the angle is supplementary? Wait, no, let's think again. Wait, the diagram shows two parallel lines cut by a transversal. The 77° angle and $ b $: if the transversal is crossing, then the angle $ b $ and 77° – actually, the angle $ b $ is equal to 77°? Wait, no, maybe it's supplementary. Wait, no, let's check: if the angle is 77°, then the adjacent angle would be 180 - 77 = 103, but that's not. Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, the problem is to find $ b $. Wait, maybe the 77° and $ b $ are vertical angles, so $ b = 77^\circ $? No, that doesn't seem right. Wait, maybe the angle is 180 - 77 = 103? Wait, no, let's look at the diagram again. Wait, the user's diagram: 2) has two parallel lines, a transversal, with 77° marked, and $ b $. So if the lines are parallel, the angle $ b $ and 77°: if the angle is on the same side, maybe supplementary? Wait, no, maybe it's a vertical angle. Wait, maybe the 77° and $ b $ are equal. Wait, I think I messed up. Wait, let's do it properly. For problem 2: the two lines are parallel, cut by a transversal. The angle given is 77°, and $ b $. If the angle is a corresponding angle, then $ b = 77^\circ $. But wait, maybe it's a vertical angle. Wait, no, maybe the angle is supplementary. Wait, no, let's check the diagram again. Wait, the angle 77° and $ b $: if the transversal is crossing, then the angle $ b $ is equal to 77° (vertical angle) or 180 - 77 = 103° (supplementary). Wait, maybe the diagram shows that the angle $ b $ is adjacent to the 77° angle, forming a linear pair. So 180 - 77 = 103°? Wait, no, that doesn't make sense. Wait, maybe I'm overcomplicating. Let's assume that in problem 2, the angle $ b $ is equal to 77°? No, that can't be. Wait, maybe the angle is 180 - 77 = 103°? Wait, I think I need to re-express.

Wait, let's start with problem 1:

### Problem 1:
## Step1: Identify angle relationship (alternate interior angles)
The 31° angle and angle $ b $ are alternate interior angles (since the lines are parallel, as indicated by the arrows), so they are equal.
## Step2: Determine measure of $ b $
Thus, $ b = 31^\circ $.

### Problem 2:
## Step1: Identify angle relationship (supplementary or vertical)
Wait, the diagram shows two parallel lines cut by a transversal. The angle given is 77°, and angle $ b $. If the angle 77° and angle $ b $ are supplementary (form a linear pair), then $ b = 180^\circ - 77^\circ $.
## Step2: Calculate $ b $
$ b = 180 - 77 = 103^\circ $. Wait, but maybe it's a vertical angle. Wait, no, let's look at the diagram again. If the angle is 77°, and $ b $ is on the other side, maybe it's a vertical angle. Wait, no, the diagram's 2) has the 77° angle and $ b $ – maybe the angle $ b $ is equal to 77°? No, that seems wrong. Wait, maybe the lines are not parallel? No, the arrows indicate parallel lines. So if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, alternate interior angles are equal, corresponding angles are equal, consecutive interior angles are supplementary. So if the 77° is a corresponding angle to $ b $, then $ b = 77^\circ $. But that seems conflicting. Wait, maybe the angle is a vertical angle. Wait, I think I made a mistake. Let's check with the diagram: the 77° angle and $ b $ – if the transversal is crossing, the angle $ b $ and 77°: if the angle is above the line, and $ b $ is below, maybe they are vertical angles. So $ b = 77^\circ $. But that doesn't seem right. Wait, maybe the problem is that the angle 77° and $ b $ are supplementary. Wait, I'm confused. Let's move to problem 3.

### Problem 3:
## Step1: Identify angle relationship (alternate interior angles or supplementary)
The 74° angle and angle $ b $: if the lines are parallel, alternate interior angles are equal, or if they are supplementary. Wait, the diagram shows two lines, one with an arrow (parallel) and a transversal. The 74° angle and $ b $: if they are consecutive interior angles, they are supplementary. Wait, no, the 74° angle and $ b $: if the lines are parallel, then $ b + 74^\circ = 180^\circ $ (consecutive interior angles). So $ b = 180 - 74 = 106^\circ $. Wait, no, maybe alternate interior angles. Wait, the diagram: the 74° angle and $ b $ – if the lines are parallel, then $ b = 74^\circ $? No, that doesn't make sense. Wait, maybe the 74° and $ b $ are vertical angles. No, let's think again. The 74° angle is on one line, and $ b $ is on the transversal. Wait, maybe the lines are parallel, so $ b $ and 74° are consecutive interior angles, so supplementary. Thus, $ b = 180 - 74 = 106^\circ $.

### Problem 4:
## Step1: Identify angle relationship (supplementary or vertical)
The 94° angle and angle $ b $: if the lines are parallel, consecutive interior angles are supplementary, or vertical angles. Wait, the diagram shows two parallel lines cut by a transversal. The 94° angle and $ b $: if the angle 94° and $ b $ are consecutive interior angles, then $ b = 180 - 94 = 86^\circ $. Or if they are vertical angles, but 94° and $ b $ – no, vertical angles would be equal. Wait, the 94° angle is given, and $ b $ is adjacent? Wait, the diagram: 4) has two parallel lines, a transversal, with 94° marked, and $ b $. So if the lines are parallel, the angle $ b $ and 94°: if they are consecutive interior angles, supplementary. So $ b = 180 - 94 = 86^\circ $.

But let's start with problem 1:

### Problem 1:
# Explanation:
## Step1: Recognize alternate interior angles
The 31° angle and angle $ b $ are alternate interior angles (due to parallel lines, indicated by arrows), so they are equal.
## Step2: Assign measure to $ b $
Since alternate interior angles are equal, $ b = 31^\circ $.

### Problem 2:
# Explanation:
## Step1: Recognize supplementary angles (linear pair)
The 77° angle and angle $ b $ form a linear pair (supplementary), so their sum is $ 180^\circ $.
## Step2: Calculate $ b $
$ b = 180^\circ - 77^\circ = 103^\circ $. Wait, but earlier I thought it might be equal, but that was a mistake. The diagram likely shows the 77° angle and $ b $ as supplementary (forming a straight line), so $ b = 180 - 77 = 103 $.

### Problem 3:
# Explanation:
## Step1: Recognize supplementary angles (consecutive interior angles)
The 74° angle and angle $ b $ are consecutive interior angles (due to parallel lines), so their sum is $ 180^\circ $.
## Step2: Calculate $ b $
$ b = 180^\circ - 74^\circ = 106^\circ $.

### Problem 4:
# Explanation:
## Step1: Recognize supplementary angles (consecutive interior angles)
The 94° angle and angle $ b $ are consecutive interior angles (due to parallel lines), so their sum is $ 180^\circ $.
## Step2: Calculate $ b $
$ b = 180^\circ - 94^\circ = 86^\circ $.

### Final Answers:
1) $ \boldsymbol{31^\circ} $
2) $ \boldsymbol{103^\circ} $
3) $ \boldsymbol{106^\circ} $
4) $ \boldsymbol{86^\circ} $
