Following the Triangle Sum Theorem, the three angles in a triangle must sum up to 180°.
Therefore, we can create an equation to find the measure of angle 1, given the two other angles.
76+59+x=180. x=the measure of angle 1 (unknown).
135+x=180. [76+59=135]
135-135+x=180-135 [Isolate x by subtracting 135 from both sides]
x=45.
Therefore, the angle measure of angle 1 = 45°
