Answer:

140 degrees

Explanation:

Im only a freshman, but i think i got it, i just assumed that the other small part at the bottom was also 20 degrees, which would mean that you are missing the 140 degrees from the 180 degree line

Answer:

120 degrees

Explanation:

The bottom part is 40 degrees,

the two lines are parallel, so theoretically, you can just put them together. Then using vertical angles, you can tell it's 40 degrees.

40 + 20 = 60

180-60 degrees is 120 degrees.
