Answer:

= 38°.

Explanation:

The three angles inside a triangle add up to 180°.

To determine the value of the unknown angle in a triangle when two angles are given, add them together and then subtract that from 180°.

To determine the value of two unknown angles of the same value, subtract the known angle from 180° and then divide by 2.

But in this example, none of the interior angles are given. To determine , we must first determine ∠OLM and ∠OML using the exterior angles ∠OLK and ∠OMN.

⠀⠀1. Subtract ∠OLK (134°) from 180°

180° - 134° = 46°, therefore ∠OLM = 46°.

⠀⠀2. Subtract ∠OMN (84°) from 180°

180° - 84° = 96°, therefore ∠OML = 96°.

⠀⠀3. Subtract ∠OLM (46°) + ∠OML (96°) from 180°

= 180° - (46° + 96°)

= 180° - 142°

= 38°
