Answer:

C = 101°

E = 46°

Explanation:

You want to know the missing angles in a trapezoid with one base angle measuring 79° and another base angle measuring 134°.

Consecutive Interior Angles

Where a transversal crosses parallel line, the consecutive interior angles are supplementary. This means ...

∠C +∠F = 180°

∠C = 180° -79° = 101°

and ...

∠D +∠E = 180°

∠E = 180° -∠D = 180° -134° = 46°

The angle measures are ...

m∠C = 101°

m∠E = 46°
