Answer: angle ULM = 120 degrees.
====================================================
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.
