I really, really don't like this question. People have preferences in solving quadratics. I would personally use, and would encourage anyone to use the quadratic equation. That's because completing the square would get excessively fractional, graphically doesn't even work because the solutions are imaginary, and differentiating it wouldn't be necessary, as there are no irrational numbers (except i, which is just imaginary). So, in short, quadratic equation because you can't get anything graphically, the answers are ugly fractions, and you can actually use that method.
You can observe that angle 1 and angle with 47° are inside a parallelogram.
Consider that the sum of the internal angles of a parallelogram is 360°.
Moreover, consider that the angle at the top right of the parallogram is congruent with the angle of 47°, then, such an angle is if 47°.
Consider that angle down right side is congruent with angle 1, then, they have the same measure.
You can write the previous situation in the following equation:
47 + 47 + ∠1 + ∠1 = 360 simplify like terms
94 + 2∠1 = 360 subtract both sides by 94
2∠1 = 360 - 94
2∠1 = 266 divide by 2 both sides
∠1 = 266/2
∠1 = 133
Hence, the measure of angle 1 is m∠1 = 133°
