Answer:

  • ∠1 = 33°
  • ∠2 = 47°

Explanation:

You want to know the measure of angle 1 given that angle 2 is 14° more and their total is 80°.

Angle sum theorem

The angle sum theorem tells you the whole is equal to the sum of the parts.

∠1 +∠2 = ∠ABD

Using the given values, we have ...

∠1 +(∠1 +14°) = 80°

2×∠1 = 66° . . . . . . . . . subtract 14°

∠1 = 33° . . . . . . . . divide by 2

∠2 = 33° +14°

∠2 = 47°
