Lines a and e are parallel.
Line m is a transversal.
What are angles 3 and 6 called?

so its 120
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
There are names given to certain pairs of angles.
Angles 3 and 6 are called corresponding angles.
Postulate:
When parallel lines are cut by a transversal, corresponding angles are congruent.
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
That means that angles 3 and 6 are congruent.
Congruent angles have the same measure.
