Answer:

m∠p = 131

Explanation:

to find this we can use the exterior angle theorem

this states that the two inner angles added together equals the opposite outer angle

so

we can start with a

we must find the inner angle a

180 - 162 = 18

that is the inner angle of a

now we must use the exterior angle theorem to find p

a + p is 149

a + p = 149

substitute 18 in

18 + p = 149

now subtract 18 from both sides

p = 131

that is your answer
