Answer:

50 degrees

Explanation:

Since the two lines are parallel, we know that the other angle above angle 1 is also 130, because corresponding angles are congruent. Next, since we know that it sits on a line, we know that angle 1 and 130 make a linear pair, or add up to 180 degrees. 180-130= angle 1. So angle 1 is 50 degrees. Sorry if the explanation is a bit funky.
