Answer:


\angle 1=39\textdegree

Explanation:

Remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle always equal 180. Therefore:


\angle 1+\angle Y+102=180

Let's subtract 102 from both sides. This yields:


\angle 1+\angle Y=78

Now, notice the that both ∠1 and ∠Y have exactly one arc mark.

Arc-marks denote congruence. Therefore, ∠1 and ∠Y are congruent to each other. In other words:


\angle 1=\angle Y

So, we can substitute ∠Y for ∠1 for our equation. This yields:


\angle 1+\angle 1=78

Combine like terms:


2\angle 1=78

Divide both sides by 2. So, the measure of our angle is:


\angle 1=39\textdegree

And we're done!
