ULM = KLM - KLU

ULM = 156 - 36

ULM = 120 degrees

Answer: angle ULM = 120 degrees.

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

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll use the angle addition postulate. This is basically the idea where we can break any angle into smaller parts, or go in reverse to build up larger angles based on smaller pieces.

In this case, we can see that the smaller angles KLU and ULM combine to form the largest angle KLM. Think of it like puzzle pieces.

Let x be the measure of angle ULM

We can say the following

(angle KLU) + (angle ULM) = angle KLM

(36) + (x) = 156

36 + x = 156

To solve for x, we subtract 36 from both sides

36+x-36 = 156-36

x = 120

Angle ULM is 120 degrees.

-------------------

As a check,

(angle KLU) + (angle ULM) = 36 + 120 = 156

which matches with angle KLM, so the answer is confirmed.
