Answer:

m<2 = 63

m<3 = 117

Explanation:

<1 and <2 are alternate interior angles and are therefore equal. M<1 = 63 degrees, so m<2 must be the same thing.

<2 and <3 are on the same straight line.

They are supplementary.

Therefore they equal 180 degrees.

63 + m<3 = 180 Subtract 63 from both sides.

63 - 63 +m<3 = 180 - 63 Collect like terms

m<3 = 117
