angle 2 = 36° (option B)

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles in each of the edges is equal to 90 degrees

Angle 4 = 54 degrees

Angle 1 and angle 4 are alternate angles

Alternate angles are equal.

Angle 1 = Angle 4

Angle 1 = 54 degrees

Since the angle at the edge = 90 degrees:

Angle 1 + angle 2 = 90 degrees

54 + angle 2 = 90 degrees

subtract 54 from both sides:

54 - 54 + angle 2 = 90 - 54

0 + angle 2 = 36°

angle 2 = 36° (option B)
