We know that diagonal of a square divides the square into two equal triangle.
So here also diagonal AC divides the square into two equal triangles ADC and ABC in which,
angle DAC = angle BAC = 45°
angle DCA = angle BCA = 45°
angle ADC = angle ABC = 90°
Here in triangle ADE,
angle ADE + angle AED + angle DAE = 180°
a° + (180-82)° + angle DAC = 180°
a° + 98° + 45° = 180°
a° = (180-143)°
a° = 37°
Similarly in triangle ADF,
angle DAF + angle ADF = angle DFB ( as we know that summations of two interior angles is the exterior angle)
90° + a° = b°
90° + 37° = b°
b° = 127°
Hope it helps you.
