Problem

Sides and of regular hexagon are extended to meet at point . What is the degree measure of angle ?
Solution
The sum of the angle measures of a hexagon is degrees, so each angle of a regular hexagon measures . Therefore, , which means . Similarly, . Since the angles of sum to , we have .

Final answer
60^\circ
