Let's just compare the angles to start - - - these are two parallel lines cut by another line (transversal), so there are a lot of equal angles.

Angles 1 and 5 are the same

Angles 2 and the 65 degree angles are the same.

Angles 4 and 8 are the same.

And 3 and 7 are the same.

There are even more similar angles:

1 and 3 are the same. 2 and 4 are the same.

5 and 7 are the same, and 8 and the 65 degree angle are the same.

So without any math, Angles 2, 4 and 8 are all 65 degrees.

So Angle 65 + Angle 5 = 180. Therefore Angle 5 = 115.

Therefore angle 7 is 115. (You could also say that 65+ Angle 7 = 180.)

Since angle 7 is 115, so is angle 3 and angle 1.

So in conclusion

Angle 1: 115

Angle 2: 65

Angle 3: 115

Angle 4: 65

Angle 5: 115

Angle 7: 115

Angle 8: 65
