1. The problem asks for the measure of angle 1 in a triangle where the other two angles are 143° and 34°.
2. Recall the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem: The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180°.
3. Using the theorem, we write the equation:
$$143° + 34° + m\angle 1 = 180°$$
4. Add the known angles:
$$177° + m\angle 1 = 180°$$
5. Subtract 177° from both sides to isolate $m\angle 1$:
$$m\angle 1 = 180° - 177°$$
6. Calculate the difference:
$$m\angle 1 = 3°$$
7. Therefore, the measure of angle 1 is 3°.
