Answer:


m\angle1=75^(\circ)

Explanation:

Solution 1:


m\angle1 is formed by a point that is on the circle. The angle encompasses an arc of
150^(\circ) and thus the measure of the angle formed is
(150)/(2)=\fbox{$75^(\circ)$}.

Solution 2:

Since
\angle 1 is adjacent to a line and encompasses an arc, we can set up the following proportion:


(150)/(360)=(m\angle 1)/(180)

Solving, we get
m\angle 1=\fbox{$75^(\circ)$}.
