Line m is parallel to line p. m ∠ hef = 39º and m ∠ igf = 13º. find the m ∠ efg. explain in detail how you know you are correct. add additional lines and points as needed for your explanation.

The measure of ∠EFG is 52°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given line m is parallel to line p. m∠HEF = 39º and m∠IGF = 13º.we have to find m∠EFG.

In ΔJFG,

By angle sum property of triangle, which states that sum of all angles of triangle is 180°

m∠FJG+m∠JGF+m∠JFG=180°

⇒ 39°+13°+m∠JFG=180°

⇒ m∠JFG=180°-39°-13°=128°

As JFE is a straight line ∴ ∠JFG and ∠EFG forms linear pair

⇒ m∠JFG+m∠EFG=180°

⇒ 128°+m∠EFG=180°

⇒ m∠EFG=52°

The measure of ∠EFG is 52°

d is the answer
