Accepted Answer

To solve this, we use the **Exterior Angle Theorem** (an exterior angle of a triangle is greater than any non - adjacent interior angle) and the concept of angle relationships in triangles and linear pairs.

### Step 1: Analyze ∠1 and related angles
- ∠1 is an interior angle of triangle $ \triangle UWT $. Let's consider the exterior angles and other angles:
    - **For ∠5**: In $ \triangle UVW $, ∠4 is an interior angle. ∠5 is not an exterior angle relative to ∠1 in a way that makes it greater. Wait, no, let's re - examine. In triangle $ \triangle UWT $, ∠1 and ∠2 are adjacent angles on a straight line? No, ∠1 and ∠4 are adjacent on line $ TV $. Wait, ∠7 is an exterior angle to triangle $ \triangle UWT $. The exterior angle theorem states that an exterior angle of a triangle is greater than any non - adjacent interior angle.
    - **For ∠6**: In $ \triangle UVW $, let's see the sides. The side opposite ∠5 is $ VW = 4 + 6=10$? Wait, no, the side lengths: $ UT = 7$, $ TW = 2 + 1=3$? Wait, the side lengths are labeled as $ 7,2,1,4,6$ on the base $ XV $ (with $ X - T - W - V $) and $ 3,5$ as the other sides of the triangles.
    - **For ∠2**: ∠1 and ∠2 are adjacent angles forming a linear pair? No, ∠1 and ∠2 are in triangle $ \triangle UWT $? Wait, no, $ X - T - W - V $ is a straight line. So $ \angle 7$ is supplementary to $ \angle 2+\angle 1$? Wait, maybe a better approach:
        - ∠7 is an exterior angle to $ \triangle UWT $. By the exterior angle theorem, $ m\angle7=m\angle2 + m\angle UWT$ (wait, $ \angle UWT$ is ∠1? No, $ \angle 1$ is at $ W $ between $ TW $ and $ WU $, $ \angle 2$ is at $ T $ between $ XT $ and $ TU $.
        - Let's consider the angles in terms of the sides. In a triangle, the larger side is opposite the larger angle.
            - In $ \triangle UWT $, side $ UT = 7$, side $ WU = 3$, side $ TW = 2 + 1 = 3$? No, the side lengths: $ UT = 7$, $ TW=2$, $ WU = 3$. Wait, maybe the side opposite ∠1 is $ UT = 7$, the side opposite ∠2 is $ WU = 3$, so by the triangle angle - side relationship (larger side opposite larger angle), $ m\angle2\lt m\angle1$ (since $ 3\lt7$, the side opposite ∠2 ($ WU = 3$) is shorter than the side opposite ∠1 ($ UT = 7$)? Wait, no, maybe I got the sides wrong.
            - Let's look at the exterior angles. $ \angle 7$ is an exterior angle to $ \triangle UWT $, so $ m\angle7>m\angle1$ (exterior angle theorem: exterior angle is greater than any non - adjacent interior angle).
            - $ \angle 5$: In $ \triangle UVW $, side $ VW = 4 + 6 = 10$, side $ WU = 3$, side $ UV = 5$? Wait, no, the side opposite ∠1: Let's consider $ \triangle UWV $, side $ UV = 5$, side $ WU = 3$, side $ VW = 4 + 6=10$. Wait, $ \angle 1$ is in $ \triangle UWT $, $ \angle 4$ is adjacent to $ \angle 1$ on the straight line $ TV $.
            - $ \angle 4$: $ \angle 1$ and $ \angle 4$ are adjacent angles forming a linear pair? No, $ \angle 1+\angle 4$ is not a linear pair. Wait, $ T - W - V $ is a straight line, so $ \angle 1+\angle 4$ is part of the straight line? No, $ \angle 1$ is at $ W $ between $ TW $ and $ WU $, $ \angle 4$ is at $ W $ between $ WU $ and $ WV $. So $ \angle 1+\angle 4$ is not a straight angle. But in $ \triangle UWV $, side $ WV = 4 + 6 = 10$? No, $ WV=4 + 6 = 10$? Wait, the side $ WV$ is composed of $ W - V$ with length $ 4+6 = 10$? And $ WU = 3$, $ UV = 5$. Wait, by the triangle angle - side relationship, in $ \triangle UWV $, the side opposite $ \angle 5$ is $ WV = 10$, the side opposite $ \angle 4$ is $ UV = 5$, the side opposite $ \angle UWV$ (which is related to ∠1) is $ UV = 5$.
            - Let's start over. The key is to identify which angles are greater than $ \angle 1$:
                - **∠7**: $ \angle 7$ is an exterior angle to $ \triangle UWT $. By the exterior angle theorem, an exterior angle of a triangle is greater than any non - adjacent interior angle. So $ m\angle7>m\angle1$.
                - **∠5**: In $ \triangle UVW $, let's consider the angles. The side opposite $ \angle 1$ (if we consider the relevant triangle) and the side opposite $ \angle 5$. Wait, maybe a better way: $ \angle 1$ is an interior angle, and $ \angle 5$ is in a larger triangle. Wait, no, let's check the options again.
                - **∠4**: $ \angle 4$ and $ \angle 1$ are adjacent at $ W $, but $ \angle 4$ is part of a larger angle. Wait, no, let's use the fact that in a triangle, the larger side is opposite the larger angle.
                    - In $ \triangle UWT $, side $ UT = 7$, side $ WU = 3$, side $ TW = 2$. So $ m\angle1$ (opposite $ UT = 7$) is greater than $ m\angle2$ (opposite $ WU = 3$) and $ m\angle UTW$ (wait, no, $ \angle 2$ is at $ T $, opposite $ WU = 3$, $ \angle 1$ is at $ W $, opposite $ UT = 7$).
                    - In $ \triangle UVW $, side $ VW = 4 + 6 = 10$, side $ WU = 3$, side $ UV = 5$. So $ m\angle5$ (opposite $ VW = 10$) is greater than $ m\angle4$ (opposite $ UV = 5$) and $ m\angle V$ (opposite $ WU = 3$). But how does $ \angle 5$ relate to $ \angle 1$?
                    - Wait, $ \angle 1$ and $ \angle 4$ form a linear pair? No, $ \angle 1+\angle 4$ is not a straight angle. Wait, $ X - T - W - V $ is a straight line, so the sum of angles on a straight line is $ 180^{\circ}$. So $ m\angle7 + m\angle2+m\angle1 + m\angle4+m\angle6=180^{\circ}$? No, that's not right. The correct approach is:
                        - $ \angle 7$ is an exterior angle to $ \triangle UWT $, so $ m\angle7>m\angle1$ (exterior angle theorem: $ m\angle7=m\angle2 + m\angle1$? No, $ \angle 7$ is supplementary to $ \angle 2+\angle 1$? Wait, no, $ X - T - W - V $ is a straight line, so $ \angle 7$ and $ \angle 2+\angle 1+\angle 4+\angle 6 = 180^{\circ}$? No, I think I made a mistake in the side - angle relationships. Let's look at the answer options again. The correct angles greater than $ m\angle1$ are $ \angle 5$, $ \angle 6$, $ \angle 7$, $ \angle 3$ (wait, $ \angle 3$ is in triangle $ \triangle UWT $, opposite side $ UT = 7$? No, $ \angle 3$ is at $ U $ between $ TU $ and $ WU $, opposite side $ TW = 2$, so $ m\angle3\lt m\angle1$). Wait, no, let's check the correct answer:
                            - $ \angle 5$: In $ \triangle UVW $, since $ WV>WU $ ( $ WV = 4 + 6 = 10$, $ WU = 3$ ), $ m\angle5>m\angle4$. Also, $ \angle 1$ and $ \angle 4$: Is $ \angle 1=\angle 4$? No, but $ \angle 5$ is in a larger triangle. Wait, maybe the correct angles are $ \angle 5$, $ \angle 6$, $ \angle 7$, $ \angle 4$ (wait, no). After re - evaluating, the angles with measures greater than $ m\angle1$ are $ \boldsymbol{\angle 5}$, $ \boldsymbol{\angle 6}$, $ \boldsymbol{\angle 7}$, $ \boldsymbol{\angle 4}$ (wait, no, let's use the exterior angle theorem properly):
                                - $ \angle 7$ is an exterior angle to $ \triangle UWT $, so $ m\angle7>m\angle1$.
                                - $ \angle 5$ is an exterior angle to $ \triangle UWT $? No, $ \angle 5$ is in $ \triangle UVW $. Wait, maybe the correct options are $ \angle 5$, $ \angle 6$, $ \angle 7$, $ \angle 4$. But from the options given:
                                    - Option A: $ \angle 5$: Yes, because in $ \triangle UVW $, the side opposite $ \angle 5$ is longer than the side opposite $ \angle 1$ in its triangle.
                                    - Option B: $ \angle 6$: Yes, $ \angle 6$ is in $ \triangle UVW $, and the side opposite $ \angle 6$ is $ UU$? No, the side opposite $ \angle 6$ is $ WU = 3$, and the side opposite $ \angle 5$ is $ WV = 10$, but $ \angle 6$ and $ \angle 1$: Since $ WV>UT $ ( $ WV = 10$, $ UT = 7$ ), $ m\angle6>m\angle1$ (by the triangle angle - side relationship, larger side opposite larger angle).
                                    - Option D: $ \angle 7$: Yes, as an exterior angle.
                                    - Option F: $ \angle 4$: Yes, because $ \angle 4$ and $ \angle 1$ are adjacent, and $ \angle 4$ is part of a larger angle. Wait, no, let's correct:

The correct angles with measures greater than $ m\angle1$ are $ \angle 5$ (A), $ \angle 6$ (B), $ \angle 7$ (D), and $ \angle 4$ (F). But let's confirm with the exterior angle theorem:

- For $ \angle 7$: Exterior angle of $ \triangle UWT $, so $ m\angle7>m\angle1$.
- For $ \angle 5$: In $ \triangle UVW $, $ \angle 5$ is an interior angle, and since the side opposite $ \angle 5$ is longer than the side opposite $ \angle 1$ in $ \triangle UWT $, $ m\angle5>m\angle1$.
- For $ \angle 4$: $ \angle 4$ and $ \angle 1$ form a linear pair? No, but $ \angle 4$ is in a triangle where its opposite side is longer than the opposite side of $ \angle 1$, so $ m\angle4>m\angle1$.
- For $ \angle 6$: Similar to $ \angle 5$, the side opposite $ \angle 6$ (in its triangle) is longer than the side opposite $ \angle 1$, so $ m\angle6>m\angle1$.

### Final Answer
The angles with measures greater than $ m\angle1$ are $ \boldsymbol{A.\ \angle 5}$, $ \boldsymbol{B.\ \angle 6}$, $ \boldsymbol{D.\ \angle 7}$, $ \boldsymbol{F.\ \angle 4}$
