Answer:

angle 1: 43

angle 2: 137

Explanation:

Lets find angle 1 first :)

Since oposite diagonal angles are the same, this will make angle 1 43 degrees :)

Now lets find angle 2!

Since 1 was 43 degrees, and a flat line is 180 degrees we must subtract!

Lets do that now!

180 - 43 = 137

Angle 2 will be 137 degrees!

Have an amazing day!!

Answer and Explanation:

m∠1 = 43° because opposite angles are congruent

m∠2 = 137° because ∠2 and 43° are supplementary, so m∠2 + 43° = 180°

m∠3 = 137° because opposite angles are congruent, so m∠3 = m∠2

m∠5 = 43° because alternate angles are congruent

m∠6 = 137° because ∠5 and ∠6 are supplementary, so 43° + m∠6 = 180°

m∠7 = 137° because alternate exterior angles are congruent, so m∠7 = m∠2

m∠8 = 43° because alternate exterior angles are congruent, so m∠8 = m∠1
