Question

in the figure below, m∠2 = 143°. find m∠1.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify angle - relationship

$\angle1$ and $\angle2$ are supplementary angles, so $m\angle1 + m\angle2=180^{\circ}$.

Step2: Solve for $m\angle1$

$m\angle1=180^{\circ}-m\angle2$. Substitute $m\angle2 = 143^{\circ}$ into the equation: $m\angle1=180 - 143$.
$m\angle1 = 37^{\circ}$

Answer:

$37$
