The angle 1 and 2 forms the linear pair on a straight line.

The value of angle 2 can be determined as,


\begin{gathered} \angle1+\angle2=180^(\circ) \\ 45^(\circ)+\angle2=180^(\circ) \\ \angle2=180^(\circ)-45^(\circ) \\ \angle2=135^(\circ) \end{gathered}

Thus, the value of angle 2 is 135 degrees.
