Answer:

a = 102°

b = 78°

c = f = 58°

d = 122°

e = 26°

Explanation:

The usual rules apply:

  • the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°
  • the sum of angles making a right angle is 90°
  • vertical angles are congruent
  • corresponding angles at a transversal crossing parallel lines are congruent
  • angles of a linear pair are supplementary.

There are a couple of angles we can find right away:

b corresponds to 78°, so has that measure

a is supplementary to b, so is 180° -78° = 102°

e is complementary to 64°, so is 26°

The unmarked angle between 78° and f is vertical to 44°, so we have ...

78° +44° +f = 180°

f = 58°

Angle c corresponds to angle f, so is 58°

Angle d is supplementary to angle c, so is 180° -58° = 122°

In summary, ...

a = 102°

b = 78°

c = f = 58°

d = 122°

e = 26°
