Answer:

2nd option

Explanation:

the quadrilateral has 1 pair of parallel sides and is therefore a trapezoid.

• each lower base angle is supplementary to the upper base angle on the same side, that is

∠ 1 + ∠ 2 = 180° , so

x + x + 50 = 180

2x + 50 = 180 ( subtract 50 from both sides )

2x = 130 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 65

then

∠ 1 = x = 65°

∠ 2 = x + 50 = 65 + 50 = 115°
