a)40\text{ \degree}

Step-by-step explanation

hen a line instersects a pair of paralle lines diverse angles are created

If you copy A of the corresponding angles and you translate it along the transversal, it will coincide with the other corresponding angle (B)

so angles A and B are called

Corresponding angles, those angles are congruents


m\measuredangle A=m\measuredangle B

hence, if the lines in the problem are parellel, is must fit


m\measuredangle1=40\text{ \degree}

therefore, the answer is


a)40\text{ \degree}

I hope this helps you
