Given the figure, we need to find the measures of angles \( a, b, c, d, e, f, \) and \( g \) under the assumption that lines \( L_1 \) and \( L_2 \) are parallel, and \( m \) is a transversal intersecting these parallel lines. We know that \( \angle a = 23^\circ \).

### Analysis
1. **Corresponding Angles**: When a transversal intersects two parallel lines, corresponding angles are equal. This property helps in deducing angles above \( L_2 \) and \( L_1 \).
2. **Vertical Angles**: Vertical angles are equal when two lines intersect. This property helps us find angles directly across from a given angle.
3. **Supplementary Angles**: Adjacent angles formed by a straight line sum up to \( 180^\circ \).

### Solution
Let's use the properties systematically to determine each angle:

1. **Angle \( a \)**:
   \[
   \angle a = 23^\circ \quad \text{(Given)}
   \]

2. **Angle \( c \)**:
   \[
   \angle c = \angle a = 23^\circ \quad \text{(Vertical angles)}
   \]

3. **Angle \( b \)**:
   \[
   \angle b = 180^\circ - \angle a = 180^\circ - 23^\circ = 157^\circ \quad \text{(Supplementary to } \angle a \text{)}
   \]

4. **Angle \( d \)**:
   \[
   \angle d = \angle b = 157^\circ \quad \text{(Corresponding angles)}
   \]

5. **Angle \( g \)**:
   \[
   \angle g = \angle c = 23^\circ \quad \text{(Corresponding angles)}
   \]

6. **Angle \( f \)**:
   \[
   \angle f = \angle a = 23^\circ \quad \text{(Vertical angles)}
   \]

7. **Angle \( e \)**:
   \[
   \angle e = \angle d = 157^\circ \quad \text{(Vertical angles)}
   \]

### Final Measures
- \( \angle a = 23^\circ \)
- \( \angle b = 157^\circ \)
- \( \angle c = 23^\circ \)
- \( \angle d = 157^\circ \)
- \( \angle e = 157^\circ \)
- \( \angle f = 23^\circ \)
- \( \angle g = 23^\circ \)
