Which correctly describes how to determine the measure of angle 1?

• The 105° angle and angle 2 are alternate exterior angles so angle 2 must measure 105°. Angles 1 and 2 are supplementary angles so angle 1 must measure 75°.

• The 105° angle and angle 2 are corresponding angles so angle 2 must measure 105°. Angles 1 and 2 are supplementary angles so angle 1 must measure 75°.

• The 105° angle and angle 2 are alternate exterior angles so angle 2 must measure 75°. Angles 1 and 2 are supplementary angles so angle 1 must measure 105°.

• The 105° angle and angle 2 are corresponding angles so angle 2 must measure 75°. Angles 1 and 2 are supplementary angles so angle 1 must measure 105°.
