Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
From the diagram,
m∠GEF is 13 less than 5 times m∠DEG and ∠DEF = 149°,.
To Find :
the value of m∠GEF..
Solution :
As per given data,
m∠GEF = 5m∠DEG – 13° …(i)
∠DEF = 149° ⇒ m∠GEF + m∠DEG = 149° ..(ii)
Substituting value of m∠GEF in (ii),
We get,
(5m∠DEG – 13°) + m∠DEG = 149°
6m∠DEG – 13° = 149°
6m∠DEG = 149° + 13° = 162°
m∠DEG = ° = 27°
Substituting value of m∠DEG in (i),
We get,
m∠GEF = 5(27°) – 13°
m∠GEF = 135° – 13°= 122°
