## Matching Angles with Their Measures

### Instructions:
Match each angle below with its corresponding measure from the given options.

### Diagram Explanation

The diagram displays a set of intersecting lines creating several angles, labeled as \(a\), \(b\), \(d\), and \(e\). Notably:

- Angle \(b\) is given as 40°.
- Angle \(e\) appears to be adjacent to a right angle (90°), forming a straight line with angle \(a\).
- Angle \(d\) is adjacent to \(b\) creating a linear pair.
- Angle \(a\) forms a right angle (90°).

### Matching Options

1. \( \angle e \) \
   Match with: \
   a. 40° \
   b. 140° \
   c. 50° \
   d. 90°

2. \( \angle d \) \
   Match with: \
   a. 40° \
   b. 140° \
   c. 50° \
   d. 90°

3. \( \angle a \) \
   Match with: \
   a. 40° \
   b. 140° \
   c. 50° \
   d. 90°

4. \( \angle b \) \
   Match with: \
   a. 40° \
   b. 140° \
   c. 50° \
   d. 90°

### Explanation:

- Angle \(b\) is directly given as 40°.
- Considering that \(a\) is a right angle, its measure is 90°.
- Since \(b\) and \(d\) form a linear pair, and \(b\) is 40°, angle \(d\) would be 140° (180° - 40°).
- Angle \(e\) complements angle \(a\) to form a straight line, so it measures 50° (180° - 90° - 40°).

### Solution:

1. \( \angle e \) -> c. 50°
2. \( \angle d \) -> b. 140°
3. \( \angle a \) -> d. 90°
4. \( \angle b \) -> a. 40°

### Summary:

This exercise tests your understanding of complementary and supplementary angles as well as the properties of intersecting lines
