the measure of the corner where the clothing store is located is 78°

vertical angles

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the slant line to represent transversal line between two parallel lines:

The angle that the lawyer's office is on measures 78°

The clothing store is opposite the angle of the lawyers office.

When two lines crosses each other, the opposite angles are equal. This angles are called vertical angles.

The clothing store angle and the lawyers office angle are equal

Hence, the measure of the corner where the clothing store is located is 78°

The relationship between the clothing store angle and the lawyers office angle is called vertical angles.
