Answer:

34º

Step-by-step explanation: so basically you know a complementary angle is 2 angles that make a straight line and a vertical angle crosses which means 2 angles are congruent to each other so I drew a line that bisected the angle by drawing a line that cut through the right angle and i extended a line down from the right angle so now I have a vertical angle and a complementary so from here I labeled each angle <1 <2 <3  If I know angle 3 is 56º then I know 56 plus __ equals 90º I then subtracted 56 from 90 and I got 34 and since I am trying to figure out what angle 1 is I know that angle 1 and 2 are vertical angles therefore I know they are congruent to each other so <1 = 34º
