Answer:

The measure of angle 7 is 56°.

Step-by-step explanation:

here, angle 8 = 124°

now, angle 8+ angle 7=180° (as the sum of linear pair is 180°)

or, 124°+angle 7=180°

or, angle 7=180°-124°

Therefore, tge measure of angle 7 is 56°.

Hope it helps.

Answer: 56 degrees

================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

The information about angle 2 is unnecessary info that your teacher likely put in there as a distraction. All we need is angle 8, which is 124 degrees. Angle 7 adds to this to form a 180 degree straight angle.

(angle 7) + (angle 8) = 180

(angle 7) + 124 = 180

angle 7 = 180 - 124

angle 7 = 56 degrees
