ooh this shouldn’t be too hard
so because of the vertical angles theorem the angles vertically opposite to each other are congruent
so we know that 90+w=125 because of that

so solve that and w=35

  1. We have to find the adjacent angle of 125, which is 55 degrees.
  2. Add 55 + 90 (= 145) to find the adjacent angle of angle W.
  3. Subtract 145 from 180, to get the measure of angle W, which is 35.

HOPE THIS HELPED YOU!
