Explanation:

We know that:


  • m\parallel n

  • m\angle2=60\°

  • m\angle1=m\angle3;m\angle2=m\angle4;m\angle5=m\angle7;m\angle6=m\angle8.; because they are opposite angles.
  • Also,
    m\angle3=m\angle5; because they are alternate interior angles.
  • We can see that
    m\angle1+m\angle2=180; because they are supplementary angles and they are on a straight angle.

So, based on those deductions:


m\angle1+m\angle2=180\\m\angle1+60=180\\m\angle1=180-60\\m\angle1=120

Then,


m\angle1=m\angle3\\m\angle3=120=m\angle5=m\angle7

All these angles are the same, because they are opposite (1 and 3), alternate interior (5 and 5), and opposite (5 and 7).

Therefore,
m\angle7=120\°
