Given:

The figure of a trapezium.

To find:

The measures of missing angle
m\angle K, m\angle M.

Solution:

In the given figure
JK\parallel ML.

If a transversal line intersect the two parallel lines, then the same sides interior angles are supplementary angles.


m\angle J+m\angle M=180^\circ (Supplementary angles)


87^\circ+m\angle M=180^\circ


m\angle M=180^\circ-87^\circ


m\angle M=93^\circ

Similarly,


m\angle L+m\angle K=180^\circ (Supplementary angles)


51^\circ+m\angle K=180^\circ


m\angle K=180^\circ-51^\circ


m\angle K=129^\circ

Therefore,
m\angle M=93^\circ and
m\angle K=129^\circ.
