1. **Problem:** Find the length of the angle indicated for trapezoid 1, where angle at S is 65° and angle at R is unknown.
2. **Formula and rules:** In a trapezoid, consecutive angles between the parallel sides are supplementary, meaning their measures add up to 180°.
3. **Step:** Since angles S and R are consecutive angles along one leg, we use:
$$\text{angle } S + \text{angle } R = 180^\circ$$
4. **Substitute known value:**
$$65^\circ + \text{angle } R = 180^\circ$$
5. **Solve for angle R:**
$$\text{angle } R = 180^\circ - 65^\circ = 115^\circ$$
6. **Answer:** The angle at vertex R is $115^\circ$.
