Answer:

1 = 130° , 2 =50° , 3 = 85°, 4=45°

Explanation:

1 =45 + 85 = 130 { sum of opposite interior angle equals exterior angle}

2 = 180 - 1 { angles on a straight line equals 180}

= 180 -130 = 50°

4 = 180 - 135 = 45° { angles on a straight line equals 180}

3 = 135 -2 { sum of opposite interior angles equals exterior angle; 3 + 2 = 135}

3 = 135-50 = 85°

Note : sum of opposite interior angles equals external exterior angle, let's prove it:

If we look at the triangle at the bottom left, we have :

85, 45 and r { let's denote r as the missing angle}

So 85 + 45 + r = 180° { sum of angles of a triangle}

By simple arithmetic

r = 180 - ( 85+45) = 180 - 130 = 50°

but r + 4 = 180° { sum of angles in a straight line equals 180°}

4 = 180 - 50 = 130°

So you see 4 is the exterior angle of the triangle opposite to 85° and 45° interior angles}
