∠E and the angle measuring 119 degrees (we'll refer to this as ∠A) can be classified as supplementary angles. Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures add to a sum of 180 degrees (a straight line). Therefore, we can conclude that sum of ∠E and ∠A is 180 degrees. We can use this information to create the following equation:
∠E + 119 = 180
Now subtract 119 from both sides of the equation:
∠E = 61
We have now proven that ∠E is equal to 61 degrees.
