it is a straight angle and straight angles always measure 180°.
Angle 1 = 180°
Angle DCE is a vertical angle to angle 1, so it must also measure 60° because vertical angles are congruent.
Angle DCE = 60°
Since angles ACE and DCE are supplementary angles, their measures must add up to 180°.
Angle ACE + Angle DCE = 180°
Angle ACE + 60° = 180°
Subtracting 60 from both sides:
Angle ACE = 180° - 60° = 120°
Now, angle EDF and angle ACE are corresponding angles, and corresponding angles in parallel lines are congruent.
Therefore, Angle EDF = 120°
