Math Problem Statement
Solution
In the given diagram, we know that:
- .
Since angles 2 and 4 are vertical angles, they are equal. Thus:
Angles 1 and 2 form a linear pair (they are supplementary since they are on a straight line). Therefore:
Substitute the value of :
Similarly, angles 1 and 3 are vertical angles, so they are also equal:
