Answer:

m<1 = 55°

m<2 = 125°

m<3 = 55°

m<5 = 55°

m<6 = 125°

m<7 = 55°

m<8 = 125°

Explanation:

m<4 = 125° (given)

✔️m<8 = m<4 (alternate exterior angles are congruent)

m<8 = 125° (substitution)

✔️m<1 = 180° - m<8 (supplementary angles/linear pair)

m<1 = 180° - 125° (substitution)

m<1 = 55°

✔️m<2 = m<8 (vertical angles are congruent)

m<2 = 125° (substitution)

✔️m<7 = m<1 (vertical angles are congruent)

m<7 = 55° (Substitution)

✔️m<3 = m<7 (alternate interior angles are congruent)

m<3 = 55° (substitution)

✔️m<5 = m<3 (vertical angles are congruent)

m<5 = 55°

✔️m<6 = m<4 (vertical angles)

m<6 = 125°
