Respuesta :

m<8 = m<1 = 61.8°

m<6 = 180 - m<8
m<6 = 180 - 61.8
m<6 =  118.2

answer: D.118.2

we know that

m∠1+m∠2=[tex]180\°[/tex] -------> by supplementary angles

we have

m∠1=[tex]61.8\°[/tex]

substitute

m∠2=[tex]180\°-61.8\°=118.2\°[/tex]

m∠6=m∠2 -------> by corresponding angles

so

m∠6=[tex]118.2\°[/tex]

therefore

the answer is the option D

[tex]118.2\°[/tex]
