Answer: Option 'B' is correct.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

∠PML = 140°

∠KHP = 20°

We need to find the measure of ∠PHJ.

Let m ∠PHJ = x°

From the graph, we conclude that

∠PML = ∠PHJ + ∠KHP (Vertically opposite angle)


140^\circ=x+20^\circ\\\\140^\circ-20^\circ=x\\\\120^\circ=x

Hence, Option 'B' is correct.
