Answer:

m∠1 = 50°

Explanation:

From inspection of the given diagram we can see that angle 1, angle 40° and a right angle are the interior angles of a right triangle.

As the interior angles of a triangle sum to 180°:

⇒ m∠1 + 40° + 90° = 180°

⇒ m∠1 + 130° = 180°

⇒ m∠1 + 130° - 130° = 180° - 130°

⇒ m∠1 = 50°

Therefore, the measure of angle 1 is 50°.
