![**Determining the Sum of Labeled Angles**
**Figure Overview:**
The diagram features two intersecting lines creating multiple angles at their intersection points. The angles are labeled as follows:
- Angles around the first intersection: \(a\), \(b\), and \(c\)
- Angles around the second intersection: \(d\), \(e\), and \(f\)
**Task:**
Determine the sum of the labeled angles \(a\), \(b\), \(c\), \(d\), \(e\), and \(f\) without measuring them.
**Explanation:**
The figure depicts two intersecting lines dividing the plane into multiple regions and forming several angles. Each intersection of the lines contributes to a set of angles around a point.
According to the properties of intersecting lines:
- The sum of angles around a point is \(360^\circ\).
Additionally, when considering angles formed by two intersecting lines, the sum of angles on a particular side of a straight line is \(180^\circ\).
Given that the figure consists of intersecting lines:
- Angles \(a + b + c\) and \(d + e + f\) are situated around their respective intersecting points.
**Mathematical Formulation:**
Since these angles are distributed around the points of intersection:
\[ a + b + c + d + e + f = 360^\circ \]
Therefore, the sum of the labeled angles is:
\[ a + b + c + d + e + f = ? \]
**Conclusion:**
The sum of all labeled angles in the figure is \(360^\circ\).](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F7c60e9dc-9541-469d-8098-00c54f69ea68%2Ff5cf92e4-a928-442a-a421-f50493200031%2Fgobx2ol_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
